The Global Gift Gala

The Eva Longoria Foundation has united forces to create a substantial difference in the lives of countless children and women worldwide. We have come together under the notion that a combined effort of parallel missions is more forceful than organizations working towards the same goal non-unilaterally. The new wave of philanthropy is the united forces of resources, organizations and synchronistic brands to have a transformative impact globally. The Global Gift Gala will be a tribute to those who help support and foster awareness for children & the empowerment of women around the world. It will feature entertainment, a sumptuous dinner and an award show in recognition of the 2012 The Global Gift Humanitarian Award recipient.
