There are tons of options. I linked to two different types of splitters and a fan hub. Just make sure that the CPU fan, or what is used to control the fan, plugged into the cpu headers on your motherboard. These are all from Micro Center, but are available anywhere that sells computer parts.

Also, it's safe to put more than one fan on a header. http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-3333204/fan-splitter-safe.html Just don't go over the rated amp reading on your header and you'll be fine.

Fans use a certain amount of amperage. You can find this in the spec list. Most fan headers can support up to 1A which is fine for a single fan but it's best to check the motherboard manual to be sure. 

Make sure the fans you're using don't pull more than the header can support.
