UPDATE: Last week I posted the photographs below that were taken at the 10th Annual New Yorkers For Children Fall Gala.
I then asked out loud if the youth workers, foster children, their carers etc had been invited a long to this event, because all I could see were photographs of grinning celebrities.
Anyway a visitor kindly informed me that they did attend and I now have photographs.
[Thanks New York Social Diary]

……………………………………………………………………………….
The 10th Annual New Yorkers For Children Fall Gala was held last night (Sept 22nd) at Cipriani’s in New York City.
This charity event is thrown every year to help benefit the youth who are in foster care in New York City.
I wonder if the organisers thought to invite some of the children who are in foster care (along with their carers) to this extravagant gala………………
Hmmmm… probably not!

LOL
I was at the event. There certainly were in attendance children/young adults who benefit from this organization’s charitable activities and funding, including past and current scholarship recipients who were recognized on stage. The current recipient addressed the crowd.
Thanks Geoff. It’s good to know that they were there and not just a bunch of rich/famous folk pretending to care.
It would also be nice to see photos of the children/young adults etc. Not just the rich and the famous.
indeed geoff… some other photos would be nice!
LOL that is Kevin’s wife… they tied the knot!
