MANILA, Philippines – Reality television star Kim Kardashian is auctioning her old designer clothes off at her eBay store, partly for the benefit of the victims of Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan) in the Visayas.

On November 21, Kim announced on her official website that “a portion of the proceeds” will be going to the International Medical Corps, a global humanitarian nonprofit organization that organizes medical relief programs and health care training in areas that need it.

The International Medical Corps has a team in the Philippines helping out in the relief operations.

However, netizens have mixed reactions on Kim’s initiative, as it was later on revealed that only 10% of the profits will be going to the International Medical Corps.
