The Carousel of Hope is one of the most prestigious and anticipated charity events in the United States, raising funds for diabetes research and supporting the Barbara Davis Center and the Children’s Diabetes Foundation. Held in Beverly Hills every other year, it is also known for the glamorous atmosphere and exclusive guest list.
Event chair Barbara Davis and co-chair Dana Davis hosted the 36th Carousel of Hope Ball and raised over 1.7 MILLION dollars!
Emcee Howie Mandel helped to honor Diane Keaton with the “Brass Ring Award,” and the evening featured performances by music icons John Legend, Andy Grammer and Deborah Cox.
The entertainment is always top notch, but this year knocked it out of the park!!
