Una notte in Italia

The annual Una Notte in Italia “celebrity” men's fashion show raised more than $438,000 to benefit Children At Risk. The glitzy evening, which was held at the Royal Sonesta Hotel, was attended by more than 500 guests. Co-chairs were Jennifer Pinkerton and Melissa Holman Juneau, and honorary chair was Debbie Festari. Fashionable gentlemen took to the catwalk as emcee Johnny Bravo and honorary chair Debbie Festari introduced each one. Some participants included Olympic great Carl Lewis, Dynamo stars Zarek Valentin and Tim Parker, SaberCats rugby player Ken Nasoqeqe, Houston Texans player Jonathan Owens, businessmen Chad Pinkerton, Moez Mangalji, Dr. Matthew Brams, Dr. Stephen Chen, Children At Risk president and CEO Dr. Bob Sanborn, Jonathan Zadok, Adrian Duenas, Pablo Delgado, Clayton Katz, Hugo Guerrero, Mark Theissen, and Al Lindseth. Children At Risk works to drive change so that every child receives equitable opportunities, a quality education, access to nutrition and healthcare, and is free from the dangers of sex trafficking and exploitation.
