Living in Los Angeles, I have been through my fair share of earthquakes, including the deadly Northridge Quake. The devastation in Haiti is far worse than anything we have experienced in the states. They do not have the money to retrofit buildings or provide rescue and health services. Here are just a few of the companies that are working to help.
- If you are going to make a direct donation, do it to the Red Cross. They are one of the most trusted charities in the country.
- Kid Dangerous Grime Couture in Los Angeles has created this special T-shirt that “builds upon the Haitian flag, featuring the Haitian coat of arms.” All proceeds will go to One Dome at a Time, a charity that was co-founded by Haitian musician Won-G to provide safe, green, and clean housing. Right now they are working on rebuilding Haiti.
- Josie Maran will donate 50% of cosmetics sales to Red Cross Haitian relief through the end of January.
- Jewelry designer Carlee Santarelli will be donating 100% of all sales to Haitian relief funds. In addition, she is in the process of designing ID jewelry for boys and girls should future disasters hits.
- Refinery 29 and The Luxury Spot both have lists of fashion lines and shops that are donating portions of their sales to Haitian relief.
- Mix My Granola will donate $5 to earthquake relief for each special Haitian pre-mix they sell.
- Through February 15, perfumery Bond No. 9 will donate 10% of sales to earthquake relief.
