Former Strictly presenter and Traitors host Claudia Winkleman has teamed up with other celebrities to support the British Red Cross.
It's a humanitarian charity that provides aid, emergency support and help to communities across the UK and the world.
The new t-shirt, called Here for Humanity, is being sold to raise money for the charity and to spread a message of hope and compassion.
The design was created by the illustrator Charlie Mackesy, who created the book The Boy, The Mole, The Fox and The Horse.

Claudia Winkleman says it's "an honour" to wear the t-shirt, but she's not the only celebrity supporting the cause.
Famous TV chef Jamie Oliver says "humanity for me is about fostering the next generation".
"I'm wearing this T-shirt because it represents exactly that: looking after each other and leaving the world in a better place."
Also supporting the campaign is movie star Julia Roberts and TV presenter Alison Hammond.

According to research by the British Red Cross, 75% of UK adults believe the UK is divided.
So, the charity hopes that the t-shirts might be a way for people to show their belief in community and humanity.
Charlie Mackesy - who designed the t-shirts - says the shirt is a "quiet expression" of something really important.
"That we are connected, and that kindness really matters."
All the money raised from the t-shirt sales will go towards the work the British Red Cross does, helping communities in the UK and around the world before, during and after crises.
