Heidi Klum's Halloween bash to raise money for Sandy victims

Supermodel Heidi Klum will use her belated Halloween party to raise money for victims of superstorm Sandy after cancelling the bash in the aftermath of the disaster.

The German beauty was due to host her annual event in New York City on 31 October (12), but she called off the party in the days after Sandy hit the East Coast because she "didn't think it was right to dress up... and dance" when so many people had lost their homes.

The bash will now take place at New York City venue Finale on Saturday (01Dec12) and will raise money for the Red Cross' Sandy relief scheme.

Tickets will be sold off on auction website eBay.com to boost funds, and Klum will spend Sunday (02Dec12) volunteering for the Red Cross, according to New York Post gossip column Page Six.
