“To transform a child today means to transform a family tomorrow, and with this change in mentality we can improve this city, country and the world.”
The event opened with a cocktail at which the attendees were welcomed by Managing Director of the hotel, Conrad Bergwerf, who thanked them for supporting these children and helping them to reach their potential. While enjoying drinks and hors d’œuvres, guests viewed the items up for silent auction during the meal. These included trips, meals, overnight stays at the hotel, artwork and bottles of premium wine from Quinta Monasterio wine producers who sponsored the event, and whose wine was paired with the special menu planned by the restaurant’s multiple Michelin-starred Chef Martín Berasategui and prepared by Head Chef Maximiliano Sola.
The evening closed with much joy at the final result of the fundraising efforts and the possibilities it presents. Luisa Eugenia Guzmán Carrasco expressed her gratitude to the attendees, reiterating how much the organization believes in children as the foundation of our society.
