Thousands of people on the East Coast are still picking up the pieces following superstorm Sandy’s destructive visit last week — and they desperately need your help.
If you’re not in the area and can’t volunteer, but want to somehow lend a hand, consider shopping with one of the nine retailers below; each is giving a portion of proceeds to various aid organizations:
Tory Burch: 10% of net proceeds from all in-store and online purchases will support various aid organizations
BaubleBar: For every $ 10 Buried Bauble sold, the online jewelery destination is donating $ 10 to the American Red Cross
Grey Area: NYC-based artist Sebastian Errazuriz designed two cool city-centric T-shirts; 100% of the profits from sales will benefit relief programs
Stylebop: Until Wednesday, the high-end retailer is donating 10% of all sales to the American Red Cross
Dannijo: 20% of this New York City-based jewelery company‘s sales will go to the American Red Cross through Sunday
TOMS: The philanthropic brand is donating $ 10 from every eyewear purchase and $ 5 from every shoe purchase to Save the Children
Kiss My Face: From now until Friday, 50% of this skincare company’s online revenue will go to the American Red Cross
Natori: Stock up on sexy lingerie through Nov. 11, because 20% of all sales will go to the American Red Cross
Amazon: Shop a wish list consisting of much-needed supplies like rubber gloves, flashlights and socks and the items will be shipped to a relief headquarters in Staten Island
