Ozanam – 31st annual Hollywood Holiday Gala

Nearly 800 guests gathered at the Sheraton Kansas City Hotel at Crown Center for Ozanam’s 31st annual Hollywood Holiday Gala on December 4th. After a lovely dinner, everyone enjoyed a video and a performance by the Ozanam cheerleaders. Larry Moore, who has served as the emcee for the last 31 years, kicked off the live auction portion of the evening with the assistance of the Nigro Brothers Auctioneers and Bryan Truta.
