The American Nicaraguan Foundation (ANF) celebrated their annual fundraising gala under the theme “Masquerade Ball” at the Intercontinental hotel in Miami.

The evening began with a touch of glamour as guests were greeted on the red carpet by gala chairs Theresita Pellas, Maria Amanda Rodriguez and Paco Bendaña, as well as ANF chairman of the board, Alfredo Pellas, Jr.

The extended cocktail hour allowed the nearly 600 patrons a chance to bid on a fabulous array of silent auction items. Among the items up for bid were week long trips to Paris, Britto artwork, exclusives by pieces Colombian Designer Paola Pacheco and much more.

The ballroom was absolutely breathtaking as exquisite arrangements created by SAHID complimented the scenery. Guests enjoyed an elegant dinner before dancing the night away until well past midnight.
