Muze Clothing taps the creativity of the US Armed Forces to raise monies for military service members wounded in the line of duty

(SCOTTSDALE, AZ., FEBRUARY 04, 2009) – Muze Clothing, the t-shirt company that celebrates the application of classic movie lines to real world scenarios, is continuing its commitment to helping worthwhile causes with its latest promotional venture "Muze for Our Warriors." From now through April 1, 2009, men and women currently serving in the US Armed Forces, and their supporters, are encouraged to submit their favorite movie one-liners along with a t-shirt design for their chance to win a trip for four to the Playboy Mansion in May 2009 for the official T-shirt launch party.

100% of all monies raised from the subsequent sale of the winning T-shirt will go directly to the Wounded Warrior Project, an organization dedicated to assisting and empowering service men and women seriously injured in the line of duty.

“Supporting our troops is near and dear to the hearts of the entire Muze family,” said Bill Deacon, co-founder, Muze Clothing. “This project taps into the talents of our service men and women, challenging them to creatively come up with our next Muze T, all while raising awareness and financial support for an incredibly worthy cause. We hope it will also serve as a poignant reminder of the incredible sacrifice our military men and women make everyday for our country.”

The winning t-shirt will be selected from all eligible entries by a panel of celebrity judges. New judges will be announced on the Muze for Our Warriors Facebook page. The first three judges already announced are NHL All-Star Jeremy Roenick, former US Vice-President Dan Quayle and former Army officer and The Apprentice II Winner, Kelly Perdew. Current military service members, veterans of combat in Iraq or Afghanistan, service academy and contracted ROTC cadets and midshipmen are eligible to win via their own submission or a submission made on their behalf by a supporter. Submissions are currently being accepted through the Muze Clothing website at www.muzeclothing.com/warriors. In addition to attending the launch party at the Playboy Mansion, the grand prize winner will also have the opportunity to host the celebrity judges for a day of training at the service member’s home base and will receive a T-shirt for every member of their platoon (or service equivalent unit).

"We were initially impressed by the dedication of the Muze family to supporting our troops when founders Bill Deacon and Jeremy Roenick honored the troops at San Antonio’s Brooke Army Medical Center in 2007,” said Dana Spencley, Events Manager for Wounded Warrior Project. “We are grateful to Muze for donating the proceeds from the sale of Muze for Our Warriors T-shirts and hope this new partnership will help us draw needed attention to this extraordinary group of men and women who have served our country bravely and helped to protect our ability to live freely."
