The 14th Annual St. Jude SoCal Gala, to be held on Saturday, October 15 at 5:30 p.m. at The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel, will celebrate the lifesaving mission of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. The premier Southern California event will honor local businessman and longstanding St. Jude supporter, Pete Coury. The evening’s Danny’s Dream Title Sponsors include NKSFB, The Paradigm Group of Companies and The Tull Family Foundation.
Guests will enjoy an epicurean experience with signature wine and spirits, exclusive auctions, luxury raffle, live entertainment, dancing and much more, with special guest hosts, Dave and Odette Annable. Dave is best known for his starring roles on ABC's "Brothers & Sisters," Fox's "Red Band Society" and NBC's "Heartbeat." Odette is best known for her starring roles on ABC's "Astronaut Wives Club" and "October Road" and can be seen this fall as the female lead on the new CBS drama "Pure Genius."
The premiere black tie gala will help raise funds for St. Jude that freely shares the discoveries it makes, and every child saved at St. Jude means doctors and scientists worldwide can use that knowledge to save thousands more children. Families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food – because all a family should worry about is helping their child live.
Sponsorship and a limited number of tickets are still available. Reservations can be made by visiting www.stjude.org/socalgala or by contacting Karla Micalizzi at 714.643.7008 or karla.micalizzi@stjude.org.
Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel is at 1 Ritz Carlton Drive in Dana Point.
