Part of the proceeds from the apparel, which Matthews describes as “pretty hilarious,” will benefitRed Card KC— a Kansas City charity that works to prevent bullying within the community.
“I’m proud to partner with this company and get behind this cause, and hopefully push everything in the right direction and start spreading more positivity on all of these platforms,” Matthews says in her videos.
“Here in Kansas City, we lift others up rather than putting them down,” Charlie Hustle said in an Instagram post announcing the collaboration.
“But seriously … leave Brittany alone,” the local clothing and apparel line added.
In asocial media statement, Matthews later revealed that she “will be personally matching the donation made to Red Card KC. I appreciate the KC Community!”
As of Friday morning, only the extra small sizes of the $36 shirt were available to purchase online. All other sizes ranging from small to XXXL had sold out.
