Last night, Artists for Haiti held a record-breaking art auction in New York City to benefit the Haiti reconstruction work of Architecture for Humanity, J/P HRO, Partners in Health, The Stiller Foundation and others. Artists for Haiti exceeded their ambitious goal of raising $10.5 million dollars through the event.
