The CFDA Helps Haiti

The CFDA (Council of Fashion Designers of America) is always here to help.

The CFDA (Council of Fashion Designers of America) is always here to help. And Haiti needs it now more than ever. Along with jewelry designer Alexis Bittar and various celebrities, the effort to help Haiti earthquake relief continues with a $25 "Fashion for Haiti" T-shirt. The CFDA and its member designers have organized this initiative to benefit the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund.

"The tragedy in Haiti has affected everyone and most of us individually have given money for relief,” said Diane von Furstenberg, president of the CFDA. “However, I think it is now important to send a message and create a channel for funding from fashion as an industry.”

Theory is manufacturing the Haiti t-shirt, and it will be available in both men’s and women’s styles. Look out for the tee at retailers Feb. 12 and online at cfda.com. Buy up, help away.
