A night with the Stars for a great cause!

I was afforded the opportunity to photograph Volunteers of America’s Oscar Night 2010 at the Loews Hotel in Philadelphia. Volunteers of America (VOA) is a humanitarian organization that provides immediate and long-term solutions to benefit individuals and families to save them from being homeless. The funds raised at Oscar Night were used to offset funds needed to secure funding from the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development. All proceeds will help support homeless families’ shelters and VOA’s campaign for homeless veterans known as “Home for the Brave.”

It was a fun-filled night with entertainment by celebrity impersonation of Prince, Cher, Liza Manelli, and Tina Turner provided by IN A MAN’S WORLD and Joan Rivers performed by Linda Axelrod. Pennsylvania’s largest winery, Chaddsford Winery provided the adult beverages as media sponsor ABC News interviewed the participants in Hollywood Oscar style.
