Friends of the Orphans’ Second Annual All the World to One Child Gala fundraiser sponsored by Chevron is taking place October 21, 2011 at Fairchild Tropical Garden in Coral Gables, FL. The evening’s theme is to “Plant a Seed of Hope” and invest in a child’s future, giving them the start to a better life. Friends of the Orphans is a national non-profit 501(c)(3) dedicated to improving the lives of orphaned and abandoned children through the support of Nuestros Pequeños Hermanos (NPH), a network of orphanages, hospitals and community outreach programs that operates in Bolivia, El Salvador, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, México, Nicaragua, Peru and the Dominican Republic.

The evening is shaping up to be a memorable affair headlined by the Mistress of Ceremonies, renowned Mexican singer/actress/comedienne Angelica Vale and co-host, pop urban artist PeeWee. Friends of the Orphans is close to Vale’s heart, as its work originated in her homeland more than 50 years ago. Angelica is well known for her work on the Mexican telenovela “La Fea Mas Bella” (“The Prettiest Ugly Girl”) alongside her real-life mother, legendary actress Angelica Maria, who is also the evening’s guest of honor. Pop urban artist and actor PeeWee is known for his hits “Carita Bonita” (“Pretty Little Face”) and “Tan Feliz” (“So Happy”) and starring in the Mexican telenovela “Camaleones” (“Chameleons”).

Other celebrity guests at the gala include Nicaraguan Latin music artist Luis Enrique and Grammy-award-winning Latin music producer Sergio George. Enrique’s hits include the Grammy-nominated song “Amiga” (“Friend”) from the Grammy-nominated album “Luces del Alma” (Lights of the Soul”). Also in attendance that evening will be Blanca Soto, Mexican actress and international model and 2010 All the World to One Child gala Mistress of Ceremony, journalist and television news anchor Neida Sandoval.

Throughout the evening, guests will enjoy delectable hors d’oeuvres and food stations along with Bacardi premium cocktails at an open bar. A silent auction and raffle, highlighted by a Cartier Solo Small Steel timepiece with Opaline silver dial along with vacation, restaurant & luxury packages and fine wines, will also be held.
