Nicole Richie Donates Harlow's Baby Clothes

Nicole Richie is working with HandMeDowns.com and auctioning some of Harlow's baby gear. The Web site is a place for moms to buy, sell or donate new or used baby clothes. The proceeds from Richie's donations will benefit the Richie-Madden Foundation.

In her MySpace blog, Richie talked about the auction and encouraged people to go to the Web site and "help support" the cause and to clean out their closets and donate because "there are so many families in need."

"I thought about how fortunate I am to be able to give Harlow so many things, from basic essentials to clothes," Richie wrote. "I have seen first-hand how many children lack the most basic things."

The auction starts today and last for 10 days.

"I'm proud to be donating some of Harlow's baby clothes and other gear to this auction," she said.
