Los Angeles, CA – (September 10th, 2013): As members of the Face Forward committee, the SACHIKA twins are set to auction one of their beautiful dresses from their Spring/Summer 2014 collection at the annual Face Forward Gala. This event will be taking place on Saturday, September 28th, 2013 at Fairmont Miramar Hotel & Bungalows (101 Wilshire Blvd., Santa Monica, CA 90401).
This year will mark the 4th annual Face
Forward Gala, which will be hosted by the founders of the non-profit
organization, Dr. David Alessi and his wife, Deborah Alessi. The evening will
be filled with the 1920s glitz and glamour, hence this year’s theme of “A
Gatsby Affair,” while still remembering and benefiting the survivors of
domestic violence. Designers, To-Tam & To-Nya Sachika, will be displaying
and auctioning one of their breathtaking dresses to help raise funds and spread
awareness for domestic violence. Turkish Airlines, Torrey Pines Bank, Four
Seasons Resort, and Media & Press Kit will be sponsoring this event.
The Gatsby-themed affair will start at 8 P.M. with
a star-studded red carpet. The evening will consist of a silent auction, live
auction, formal dinner, dancing, and special performances by Stacy Francis and
Grammy Award Winner recording artist Macy Gray. This event calls for an
unforgettable evening that will be benefitting an important cause.
All funds raised at the gala will be directed
towards physical and emotional reconstruction for individuals who have been
affected by domestic or gang related violence. All surgical procedures will be performed
by Dr. David Alessi and his team.
