| Northeast Guilford High graduate Christian McCullough has spent a lot of time thinking about poverty. He believes it’s more than just a lack of money. As a concept, it can be a lack of hope or the struggle to believe in yourself. Poverty is more of a mindset, he says.
“The richest man in the world can still feel like he needs to be doing more,” McCullough says. “I feel like everybody can relate to it (poverty).”
His observations sparked the idea to launch a brand to reach young people and raise awareness about poverty. McCullough’s Sick of Poverty clothing brand is a line of streetwear that includes shorts, jogging pants, hoodies, t-shirts, beanies and track sets. Most of his clients are high school and college students. His small batch collections usually sell out soon after they’re released.
