Fashion's biggest (or most-publicized) donations include $1.5 million by Gisele Bundchen and $2 million by Zara owner Inditex.

If you would like to donate shoes and clothes, contact charities such as Sole4Souls, Fashion Delivers, Shoes2Share, or Foot Solutions.

However, the best thing you can do to help out remains donating cash. For an exhaustive list of charities on site, consult this Huffington Post article: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/01/12/haiti-earthquake-relief-h_n_421014.html
