Designs for the Cure Gala to Benefit Susan G. Komen LA

Esteemed American Fashion Designer David Meister hosts the first annual Designs for the Cure Gala to benefit Susan G. Komen Los Angeles at the Bel-Air Bay Club. In partnership with the Otis College of Art and Design, the “pink tie” gala will bring together the world of fashion, celebrities and cancer survivors to raise funds for breast cancer screening, education, treatment and research. The event will feature a celeb-studded pink carpet, live entertainment by DJ Timbo and Vox Lumiere, a cocktail reception, dinner, and fabulous silent and live auctions featuring one-of-a-kind experiences, celebrity fashions and items generously donated by supporters.

1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime. It is an epidemic that can be stopped with proper screening, education, treatment and research. Over the past 15 years, the Komen Los Angeles County Affiliate has raised over $8.9 million to provide community-based grants to local organizations providing breast cancer screening, education, and treatment services and to help fund national breast cancer research programs.
