Dish-Houston

By DISH Contributer: Abby Lestin

The International World AIDS Day began on December 1, 1988 by UNAIDS and continues each year on the first day of December as an important day of reflection.  This year the 21st annual World Aids Day Luncheon was held at the Four Season Hote, co-chaired by Lara Bell and Roseann Rogers and MC'ed by Jan Carson!  Many of Houston’s VIP’s came together to help support this wonderful charity and event; such as celebrity make-up artist and philanthropist Edward Sanchez, Mayoral Candidate Annise Parker, CultureMap Senior Editor Shelby Hodge and many more! Shelby Hodge presented the Shelby Hodge Vision Award to Don Gill, the Executive Director of People with Aids Holiday Charities.  Candylicious provided creative Red Ribbon centerpieces made of different types of candy.    Neiman Marcus donated a beautiful La Raina diamond and wood pendant as a silent auction item. This was absolutely an event for the record books! Well Done!!!
