The 13th Annual FedEx/St. Jude Angels and Stars Gala promises to be another amazing fundraising experience that will bring together a large mix of celebrities, professionals, philanthropists and prominent members of the community. They will all walk the red carpet in support of the children of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
Our gala guests will enjoy a wonderful event as popular television personality Don Francisco is honored. In previous years, St. Jude gala attendees have not only enjoyed a wonderful event, but also entertainment by some of the most recognized Latin singers in honor of the children of St. Jude. The gala has also honored some of the most recognized and celebrated artists in Latin music and entertainment for their humanitarian work, such as Romero Britto, Juanes, Emilio and Gloria Estefan, Luis Fonsi, Juan Luis Guerra, Tommy and Thalia Mottola, Chef Adrianne Calvo and Coach Don Shula. This year’s gala will offer guests an equally spectacular experience!
