The five-year-old organization, which provides medical aid to youth in developing countries, was founded by Dr. Bill Chester to commemorate the life of his son Paul. TV journalist Rita Crosby hosted the casino gala, raising money for the organization's recent efforts in Kenya and Colombia. Guests, including Nastassja O'Bradaigh, had the opportunity to win auction prizes such as a private tour of the Museum of Modern Art, a Hermes scarf, and one week in a $3 million beach-front house in Hilton Head, SC.
