“LABELS ARE FOR GARMENTS, NOT PEOPLE”
“HOPE IS THE ULTIMATE LUXURY”
These are the statements that define this year’s Discovery Event. Get ready for the must-attend charity event of the year! We are privileged to present this year's honoree, Monica Belag Forman, mother, philanthropist and President and CEO of Magaschoni, a distinctive line of women’s sportswear and knitwear synonymous with luxury. Monica's tireless efforts to change the way the world sees people with disabilities make her the ideal honoree to spread the message central to this year's event. The entire evening will be a celebration of individuals as individuals, irrespective of ability. Join us at "Hope is the Ultimate Luxury." See old friends ... meet new friends ... but most of all, experience first-hand a little bit of The Center for Discovery -- the cutting edge program that many of our children are fortunate enough to call home. The evening promises to be filled with delicious food, dancing, great entertainment and a new perspective on children and adults with disabilities. We look forward to seeing you there.
- Cindy Kief and Randi Pomerantz Co-Chairs
