Haiti Earthquake Appeal

It's probably stating the obvious, but for the people of Haiti the last thing on their minds are diamonds. However, this doesn't mean that extravagant and lavish events that are commonplace in many countries can't in some way contribute to helping the people of Haiti after the devastating earthquake. Last weekend, jewellery from celebrity jewelry went to a good cause. Jewelry designer Raju Rasiah decided he would donate all his jewellery that stars wear to the Golden Globes and SAG Awards through his web site to the Haiti Earthquake Relief Fund. The Golden Globes, despite the weather saw stars turn out in their dozens. Many stars wore Rasiah’s pieces such as Cheryl Hines, Kate Flannery, Eve LaRue, and Stephen Lang. Pieces such as a $15,000 ring with diamond carats and 12-star sapphire were worn by Hines to the SAG Awards. Rasiah hoped that the ring would raise between $20,000 and $35,000 dollars for Haitian relief appeal.
