More than 60 women attended the luncheon and browsed the racks of the gorgeous daytime and evening fashions displayed at the salon. Rene generously donated 10% of all purchases that day to Jackson Memorial Foundation—and many of the women left with new and exciting frocks. In a surprise move, Rene also offered a $50 raffle for a $1,000 credit at this boutique. The winner: Funnily–Linda Huffman Kearns.
Among the women attending the luncheon were: Marilyn Samlut, Patricia Nicolas Nader, Sherie Swerdlow, Rosy Cancela, Mari Alacon, Marisa Cisneros Rizzon, Marlen Pernetti, Sam Robin, Leslie Wolfson, Rosy Cancela, Tati Katz, Jan Lewis, Beki Stanford, Dr. Dollie Green, Julie Dill, Yolanda Berkowitz, Haley Denman, Jill Swerdlow, Amy Galagano, Felicia Hernandez and Brianna Corrado.

For the first time in its 14-year-history, The Gala will take place on the grounds of the UM/Jackson Memorial Medical Center campus. The reason: The plans for a transformed Jackson Health System will be announced at the event; a renovation that will make it a world-class hospital able to serve the entire community.
