Featured Charity: St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is the world's premier center for the research and
treatment of catastrophic diseases in children, primarily pediatric cancers. The hospital and research facilities are where discoveries are made
that save the lives of children. Consistent with the vision of our founder, Danny Thomas, no child is denied treatment based on race, religion or
family's ability to pay. www.stjude.org/designcares

Research Hospital was held on April 23, 2008 at the storied Roseland Ballroom and featured featured a live runway show, restaurant and spirits
tasting, silent auction, luxury raffle, music and dancing. The host for the evening was top celebrity stylist and actor, Philip
