Living Beyond Belief

Shawn and I attended the inspiring event, "Living Beyond Belief" last night at Slate in Chelsea. Living Beyond Belief's mission is to saves lives by fostering HIV/AIDS prevention education, raising HIV/AIDS awareness among youth and motivating NYC public high school students to be HIV/AIDS peer educators, activists and advocates by providing them with college grants and recognition for their life-saving work. Members from America's Next Top Model (Kim Stolz), & Project Runway (Zulema Griffin, Emmett McCarthy) as well as Daphne Rubin Vega, Kim Cea, Jack E. Jett, John Starks, Frank Decaro & Scott Nevins were present. Sandra Bernhard was amongst the celebrities to present an award, but sadly due to a conflict she made a special video congratulatory speech toward the award recipients. Plus, you gotta love a little drag by New York's Miss Understood. :-) The night was very well organized by my friend (event coordinator) Tricia Wang. The unlimited wine and finger foods, along with winning a trip for 2 to Burlington VT (with 2 open ended plane tickets anywhere essentially) in the silent auction was unbelievable. Look out, I think Shawn and I will be feautred in various magazines, considering we were continuously photographed by media related photographers. :-) I couldn't have asked for a better evening.
