Binki Shapiro of Little Joy, one of my favorite bands, has gathered a group of artists/actors/musicians to put together unique, handmade crafts to auction off for Haiti relief. All profits go to Artists for Peace and Justice, an organization founded by Oscar-winning fillmaker Paul Haggis to deliver food, water, and educations to the empoverished children of Haiti. After the devastating January earthquake that left an estimated million people homeless, the kids need our help more than ever.
Please, check out Binki's blog, Crafts For A Cause, to look at the crafts and cool videos of some celeb contributors. Some artists involved are: Vampire Weekend, Natalie Portman, Fleet Foxes, Spike Jonze (the a-ma-zing director), The Strokes, Drew Barrymore, and The Red Hot Chili Peppers. The auction starts March 15 at 8 a.m. Pacific Time.
