To help raise funds for the victims of the Haiti earthquake, international actress and Mango spokesperson, Scarlett Johansson has designed an exclusive handbag with all profits being donated to OXFAM. The Haiti handbag will be exclusively available in more than 1390 MANGO stores worldwide, retailing for $29.90.
The print on the handbag represents the ancient cartography of Haiti, and contains the message “Supporting the people of Haiti” written and signed by the actress.
Scarlett Johansson says: “I’m thrilled to be collaborating with Mango to promote conscious consumerism and to benefit Oxfam’s Haiti Earthquake Response Fund. By purchasing this bag, which I specially designed, you are helping to provide life saving assistance like clean water to the people of Haiti.”
