Fashion for Haiti shirts now available at Saks Fifth Avenue

February 24, 2010

Saks Fifth Avenue will sell a $25 “Fashion for Haiti” T-shirt beginning February 23 to support a nation-wide, fashion industry led effort to raise monies for the victims of the devastating January 12 earthquake in Haiti. The T-shirts, available in all Saks Fifth Avenue full line stores and on saks.com, are a wearable reminder of the need to continue to support Haiti. Saks will donate $15 from the sale of each T-shirt to the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund, which is raising funds for immediate, high-impact relief and long-term recovery efforts to help those who are most in need of assistance. To further support relief efforts, the company has made a separate financial contribution to the American Red Cross.

“Saks Fifth Avenue is eager to support the ‘Fashion For Haiti’ initiative and praises the fashion industry’s collaborative and thoughtfully executed response to this overwhelming tragedy,” Steve Sadove, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Saks Fifth Avenue
