Steve Winwood performed for the event, and guests had the opportunity to bid in the Sotheby's led auction, featuring everything from puppies to tickets for tonight's Victoria's Secret fashion show. It's nice where there's something for everyone.

The benefiting charity, of which the founder was present, focuses on the treatments, cures and preventative measures for various types of cancers.
