MIAMI – The Miami Marlins, continuing their efforts in the local community to raise awareness for social justice and racial equality, have partnered with UNKNWN, a Miami-based community platform, apparel label, and retail concept destination, to create a lifestyle tee that will benefit the Miami Marlins Foundation’s Voting Initiative with Feed The Polls. The shirt, designed in collaborative efforts between the Marlins and UNKNWN, will be available beginning Monday, October 26 exclusively at UNKNWN’s Wynwood store and online at UNKNWN.com and the Miami Marlins Foundation Promote The Vote Auction – Marlins.com/PromoteTheVoteAuction. The specially designed shirt features the phrase “One City. One Team. United.” and is priced at $30 while supplies last.

With a focus on voting, social justice and racial equality, proceeds from the Marlins’ Promote The Vote Auction will benefit the Miami Marlins Foundation’s Election Day Voting Initiative with Feed The Polls, which will provide 2,000 meals at select polling locations in Liberty City and Little Havana on Election Day. Feed The Polls is a partnership between The Infatuation, Zagat, and The Migrant Kitchen, with the mission of offering free and healthy meals to voters waiting at the polls on Election Day – November 3.

In addition to the exclusive UNKNWN shirt, the Promote The Vote Auction will offer fans the chance to bid on custom-painted Jordan 1 and Nike Air Force 1 sneakers designed by local South Florida artist and firefighter Julian Reams (@jubeanski) featuring unique social justice themes on each pair of sneakers. Additional auction items will include authentic game-worn Negro League throwback Miami Giants jerseys and 2020 Miami Marlins game-used memorabilia.

“We continue to stand with our community during this critical time, recognizing that amazing things can be accomplished when we are united,” said Michael Shaw, Marlins Vice President of Experience and Innovation. “We are excited to partner with UNKNWN who shares our passion in making an impact across South Florida as we focus on social justice, racial equality and the importance of voting. This initiative will help provide healthy meals for some of our at-risk community members and hopefully remove a point of friction as voters participate on Election Day.”

“Exercising the right to vote is crucial in order to build a better future for our communities. Partnering with the Marlins Foundation’s Voting Initiative with Feed The Polls we can support our neighbors and provide a sense of meal relief to those who need it on Election Day. Alongside the Miami Marlins, this November 3rd we want to encourage everyone to get out and vote,” says Jaron Kanfer, Co-Founder of UNKNWN
