Red carpet: Building Blocks for Change – Care for Kenya Winter Ball

The Building Blocks for Change – Care for Kenya Winter Ball took place Feb. 1 at the Angel Orensanz Foundation in New York.  Guests enjoyed a silent auction, food, and live entertainment by Council and DJ Trace at the second annual ball, which attracted several hundred guests between the ages of 25 and 40 who paid between $200 to $250 for entry to the black tie event.
