Vegan Bake Sales Benefitting Haiti Recovery


I'm sure there are other fund-raising events occurring, but us vegans love a good bake sale. If you live anywhere near the bake sales, come on out, enjoy some good, sugary baked goods and help out the victims of Haiti's earthquake. Isa over at Post Punk Kitchen has been doing a phenomenal job of encouraging folks to do a vegan bake sale or join in the efforts. She has a list going (which includes everyone listed below). She has tips on how to get a bake sale together stat.

This list will be updated as often as is necessary. If you know of any group holding a vegan fundraiser to help Haiti, post in the comments!
1/16: Vegan bake sale in Philadelphia raised $600 for Partners in Health
Some other links: EasyVegan has a great action alert list going on how to help.
I posted a bunch of organizations providing relief including most recent updates.
Companies
Herbivore and Ink Brigade are selling a t-shirt, "I love Haiti" in which all the proceeds benefit the relief efforts. Each shirt is $18. Buy your shirt now!
Food Fight in Portland will be donating 10% of sales in-store and on-line this weekend to Partners in Health.
