The deadly weather system swept across the East Coast of America last October, causing extensive damage to homes and businesses, reported Contactmusic.

A clean-up effort was quickly launched, with celebrities throwing fundraisers and charity events to provide those in need with food and shelter.

Hathaway, 30, has donated a signed Miu Miu dress, Moore gave an autographed prop from her Carrie remake, and Moss has handed over a signed copy of her recent memoirs.

Other celebrities to donate one-of-a-kind items to the sales include Kanye West, Kelly Osbourne, Selena Gomez, Dita Von Teese, Chloe Sevigny, Michael Stipe, Tilda Swinton and Emma Roberts.

 

The items begin to go under the hammer online over the weekend and proceeds from the sales go to New York Cares, which provides volunteers to help storm victims rebuild their lives.
