We Make Purpose Wearable.

There are plenty of screen printers and custom t-shirt companies in Columbus, OH—but only one social enterprise like us.

Autistic adults aren’t excluded because they can’t contribute. They’re excluded because systems refuse to flex. So we built our own.

Every shirt is a statement. Every paycheck is a promise kept. Every order is a funding opportunity. We are The Awesome Company, and we employ Awesomely autistic people.

The Awesome Company Manifesto

We started with one big truth:
The world wasn’t built for everyone.
But work? It should be.

Autistic adults are often left out of the workforce—
not because they can’t contribute,
but because the system refuses to flex.

So we built our own system.
One that honors different minds,
rewards precision, routine, and pride in every task,
and sees neurodivergence not as a deficit—
but as a damn good reason to do things differently.

We believe everyone deserves a place where their strengths are valued.
We believe in quiet leadership, in careful craftsmanship,
in workplaces that don’t just include, but center.

Custom apparel is the vehicle.
Employment with dignity is the destination.

Every order is a funding opportunity.
Every shirt is a statement.
Every paycheck is a promise kept.

We are The Awesome Company.

We are here to make purpose wearable.
