Get ready to be swept away by an evening of glamour, compassion, and purpose at the Better World Fund Gala, set to dazzle attendees on the evening of Wednesday, May 15, 2024, amidst the opulent backdrop of the Carlton Hotel in Cannes.
Renowned luminaries including Lang Lang, Juliette Binoche, and Joyce Jonathan will grace the event, lending their star power to shine a spotlight on global humanitarian efforts.
Amidst the glittering festivities, the gala will also serve as a platform to honor the unsung heroes of our time—the individuals whose tireless dedication to humanitarian causes has sparked real change in communities around the world. Through the presentation of the Better World Best Commitment Award, the Better World Fund will pay homage to these remarkable individuals, whose acts of kindness and courage serve as a beacon of hope in an often tumultuous world.
But the gala is not merely a celebration; it is a call to action. On May 16, the engagement continues with an exclusive master class led by Guila Clara Kessous, an esteemed UNESCO Artist for Peace. Kessous will lead a thought-provoking discussion on the pervasive inequalities faced by women globally, shedding light on the urgent need for collective action to address these systemic challenges.
This event stands as a testament to the unwavering commitment of the Better World Fund and its partners to fostering positive change on a global scale. Supported by esteemed sponsors including Casino 3.14 Cannes, Squair, Clinique Lémanic, Maia Wine, Joanna Plafsky Films, Clinique La Prairie, and Hehe High Jewelry, the gala embodies the spirit of solidarity and collaboration in the pursuit of a better world for all.
