In The Spotlight – Ozanam’s Hollywood Holiday Gala

Ozanam’s Hollywood Holiday Gala began 31 years ago as a small movie premier and has grown to host more than 800 guests. This year, the Gala will be held on December 4th at the Sheraton Kansas City Hotel at Crown Center. Mary and Tom Bloch are the honorary chairmen, and Carole and Bill Cobb will serve as chairmen. Larry Moore is the emcee. Guests will enjoy cocktails, dinner, a special performance by the Ozanam children, and a live auction. Proceeds benefit the Ozanam girls and boys with emotional, behavioral and learning disabilities.
