Well known American clothing company Manik has gotten together with the company Goods, a retailer with their own brand based out of Seattle, to create their Haiti shirts project.
Together they have each released two shirts (first four in the gallery) of which proceeds from sales will go directly to aid organizations in Haiti. It is nice to see that two smaller independent countries are doing what they can to help those in dire need.
Haiti shirts can be purchased at Goods retail stores in Seattle and Bellevue.
