The Second Annual Teens Making a Difference
05/07/2010 - By New York, NY

The Second Annual Teens Making a Difference

York Prep Junior, Andrew Warren, and a committee of his high-school friends rallied the troops for the second “Teens Making a Difference” on Friday, May 7th raising an incredible $70,000.00 for Gabrielle’s Angel Foundation.

Sponsored by Rocawear, the event drew over 300 New York-area high school students dressed to the nines ready for a good time for a good cause.

The excitement began on the red carpet where the teens mingled with celebrities such as Tinsley Mortimer and Jules Kirby (“High Society”), Mark Indelicato (“Ugly Betty”), Broadway star Orfeh and Sports Illustrated model Esti Ginsberg. They munched on delicious donated treats from Pop Burger, Sant Ambroeus, and Serafina and desserts by TLC’s The Cake Boss, Crumbs and Serendipity 3 who served up their signature frozen hot chocolate. Student DJ Mac Petrycki opened for DJ PS1 who then handed over the spinning duties to DJ Enferno. The DJs kept committee members including Annabel Schwartz, Karen Shiboleth, Gaia Matisse, Samantha Cohen, Makenzie Moon, Elizabeth Hilfiger, Julianna Hatkoff, Avery Singer, and Rebecca Chernavsky dancing the night away. The crowd went wild when Cash Money / Universal Artist Jay Sean got up and rocked the house with three of his hit singles.

Andrew’s proud parents, longtime Foundation supporters Marcy & Michael, pitched in with party preparations to help make the event a success. Other parents whose help was invaluable in the planning and execution were Michael Cohen of the Trump Organization and Jan Planit who, with student committee member Danielle Brizel, put on an amazing fashion show. Professional models – including Calvin Klein newbie Grayson Vaughn – strutted the runway in clothes by Michael Kors, Jill Stuart, Anlo, Shoshanna, Elizabeth and James, Unk and Will, Calvin Klein, Cynthia Rowley and more. Foundation Board member, Daniella Rich Kilstock and her husband, Richard stopped by in support of the event to thank everyone for their efforts. At night’s end, guests went home with gift bags, underwritten by the Shiboleth family, which included products from Kimora Lee Simmons’ Cosmetics, Neutrogena, Tommy Hilfiger, PopChips, Rocawear and more. Gabrielle’s Angel Foundation has faith that this next generation of philanthropists will carry on the tradition of giving back as they truly showed what it means to make a difference in the lives of others.
