The First Annual MNITF Holiday Gala Dance Party & Charity Event invaded Beverly Hills over the weekend. Hosted by DeLaurentiis Productions, MNITF which stands for the Mendez National Institute of Transplantation Foundation, has been leading innovators in bringing awareness to kidney disease and end stage organ failure. This Gala was organized to benefit underserved communities affected by kidney disease and end-stage organ failure. MNITF, a nonprofit committed to advancing transplant research, education, and outreach—especially within Black, Hispanic, and Native American communities disproportionately affected by kidney disease, brought out some of the film industry’s most prominent actors and entertainers to celebrate their life saving tactics, research and inclusion in the film industry.
Guests in attendance included actors Eva LaRue, Eric Roberts & wife Aliza Roberts, Micheal Pare and Stephanie Krammer, alongside MNITF board of directors and executive director Nicole Mendez. As the Mendez family is also gearing up for their new highly anticipated feature film, “A Heart Full of Hope”, the cast and crew from the movie were also in attendance including Chelsea Rose Cook, Faith Barrett, Sebastian Armani, Roychel Cooks, Young Retro, Christopher M. Dukes, and Craig Campobasso. Other notable attendees include Tyrone Dubose, Dani Daniels, Ava Kaufman, Yasir Qazi, Garrett Clayton, The Satin Dollz, and Alveria Jentimane & Ehis Inekhomon Pamela Renee Smith, Hoss Tabrizani, Madison Exstrand, and Sierra Tanji.
Funds raised will directly support families who are in need of transplant-related care in underrepresented communities across America. To learn more about MNITF and ways to get involved with giving, please visit their official website below.
