Mingle Media TV and Red Carpet Report host, Gabe Lenners, were invited to come out and cover the 30th Anniversary Smile Gala at the Beverly Hilton honoring Brooke Burke-Charvet and David Charvet, Jill Grey, Sanuk, Julia and Stephanie Argyros, Krista Jajonie and Daneia Sanadiki.
This is the second time we’ve covered this wonderful event and are humbled to share with our readers the great work that this organization does to help children around the world. Did you know that every three minutes, a child is born with a cleft and 1-in-10 of those children will die before their first birthday. Operation Smile provides free surgery to children suffering from facial deformities around the world and helps them heal their smiles which also transforms their lives.
On hand to serve as Master of Ceremonies was Billy Bush who was busy greeting everyone on the red carpet as they were making their way inside the showroom. Operation Smile honored their Smile Ambassadors, Dancing with the Stars co-host Brooke Burke-Charvet and her husband David Charvet along with philanthropist Jill Grey, the outdoor footwear company Sanuk, humanitarians Julia and Stephanie Argyros, Krsita Jajonie and Daneia Sanadiki. Also on hand were the Gala co-chairs, Roma Downey and Mark Burnett, Sue Naegle, Jennifer Salke and Dr. Randy Sherman.
