CFDA HELPS TO RAISE FUND FOR HAITI WITH TEES

The Council of Fashion Designers of America launches “Fashion for Haiti” T-shirt. Proceeds will be donated to the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund.

U.S.A. – We love when people in the fashion industry get together to take part in helping out those who are in need of help. And no one needs more help right now than the people of Haiti. There are many ways to donate to Haiti and one of them is by purchasing a “Fashion for Haiti” T-shirt launched by the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA). The black and lime green “Fashion for Haiti” T-shirt was designed by Peter Arnell. A map of Haiti stands in for the word “Haiti” in the phrase “To Haiti With Love.” Proceeds will be donated to the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund, which is helping to raise funds for immediate relief and long-term recovery efforts in Haiti. The “Fashion for Haiti” T-shirt is priced at $25 and it will be available for purchase in retailers across the country and at www.cfda.com starting on Friday, Feb. 12 — exactly one month after a 7.0 earthquake hit Haiti, which makes it the most powerful earthquake to hit the nation in a century.
