Our Wish List

 

  • That we didn’t start papers the night before they were due.
  • That we could live on unlimited meal cards forever (with better food).
  • That people stopped buying fake designer junk.
 
 
College is one of the best places to join minds--and forces--to make a difference. It can be anything really. Art club. Debate Team. Soccer crew. The No Knockoff Kids are a group of students from across the globe that understand the implications of counterfeits, and want to spread that message.
 
Being anti-counterfeit is not just for the Pre-Laws. Knockoffs are about a lot more than the law, and people who stand against it do so for a huge spectrum of reasons.
 
Social Justice majors want to stop counterfeiting because of child labor.
 
Political Scientists know the connections between knockoff profits and militarism.
 
Artists and fashion design students feel betrayed when people steal their work without credit.
 
Business majors think that the billions of dollars--and jobs--each of our economies loses to counterfeiters is devastating.
 
Med students fear the dangerous effects of phony medicine--or other products ranging from baby formula to lead paint on jewelry or toys.
 
The No Knockoff Kids care, about their campuses and their communities.  They’re helping spread the word about the reality of fakes. Will you?
