Naomi Campbell’s Fashion for Relief™: Charity Fashion Show


FFRH2010

Naomi Campbell’s Fashion For Relief, a spectacular charity fashion show and auction, is back for 2010, taking center stage at this year’s Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week on the evening of February 12th at 7:00 PM. The star-studded runway show and auction will be held in aid of CARE to raise crucial funds towards rebuilding Haiti’s healthcare system for mother and children. American Express Cardmembers will have exclusive access to purchase tickets before the general public for $100 and $150 starting TODAY, February 5 at 10:00 AM at Ticketmaster.com.

The runway show will be hosted by Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York and will feature internationally recognized designers, celebrities and VIPs. All the donated garments will be auctioned online at NET-A-PORTER starting February 15th. The donation is tax deductible and 100% of the event ticket sales will benefit CARE.

Naomi Campbell says, “I am deeply saddened by the recent tragedy in Haiti. So many have been killed and severely affected by the earthquake – women and children in particular are most vulnerable in disasters. Fashion is universal, personal and touches everyone. Our aim is to use this season’s catwalk shows in New York to reach people and help raise crucial funds to help save the lives of women and children.”

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to experience all while supporting an extremely important cause that will directly build up Haiti’s Healthcare system. If you are in the NY area and have the cash to drop to help out this unfortunate disaster, please attend.

In Store/Online 1/21-1/31: Upper Playground Haiti Relief Effort: You Save, We Give


HaitiUP

Upper Playground Teams Up With Fashion Delivers
to Donate Clothing to the Haiti Relief Effort
For over ten years, Upper Playground has reached out to the surrounding community to raise awareness about social issues.  Whether it’s raising consciousness of political campaigns, or donating products and services to organizations that further economic development in poverty-stricken areas, Upper Playground has always done what it can to help.   Even without large corporate resources, Upper Playground feels a sense of social responsibility and is an example of the spirit a small independent company can have.
Last week, a magnitude 7.0 earthquake shook Haiti and as a result, Haiti has suffered a massive loss of life and resources.  The dire circumstances in Haiti are prompting us to action.  Upper Playground has teamed up with Fashion Delivers to donate clothing to the people of Haiti as part of a larger Haiti relief effort.  From January 21 – 31, 2010, for every purchase a customer makes at a US-based Upper Playground retail location or on the Upper Playground web store, Upper Playground will donate a new t-shirt to Fashion Delivers.  To encourage people to be a part of the relief effort, Upper Playground is offering 50% off on all purchases made in US-based Upper Playground retail stores and on the Upper Playground web store.
