This year we will be honoring Actress
and Executive Producer Jada Pinkett Smith as the 2010 recipient of the
National American Red Cross "Crystal Cross" award for her outstanding
contributions to humanitarian efforts and her support of the Amercian
Red Cross. Throughout her career, she has been an inspiration to many
people.
We will also be presenting a very special
"Red Cross Spirit Award" to the cast and crew of the hit TV
series “HawthoRNe.”. This show educates and motivates
thousands of viewers with their portrayal of the daring struggle to
preserve life. We've chosen "HawthoRNe" because it reflects our mission
to help people and save lives, and recognizes the heroic nursing
profession which is at the roots of the American Red
Cross.
The evening will include a gourmet dinner
designed by celebrity chef Nick
Stellino , a private VIP reception, a Casino, live music, and an
auction featuring exciting and unique items.
Guests are asked to wear an element
of red in their attire. Wearing red signifies your support for the
American Red Cross and for the thousands of individuals helped by the
local Red Cross every day.
Your support of the Red Tie Affair ensures that we have
the financial resources to continue and improve all services provided by
the American Red Cross of Santa Monica. Since the American Red Cross is
privately funded and receives no government funding, our ability to
provide services to those in need is directly dependent on community
financial support.
Thank you for your generous support
of the American Red Cross of Santa Monica. Compassionate individuals like
you play a vital role in ensuring that we are able to prevent, prepare,
and respond to disasters both locally and
nationally.
