SCENE
EVENT: BERING OMEGA’S 21ST ANNUAL SING FOR
HOPE GALA: COME TO THE CABARET
WHERE: HOTEL DEREK
Raising $150,000 for people living with
HIV/AIDS and other healthcare challenges,
this event was a night to remember. 250
guests enjoyed appetizers, cocktails, an intimate dinner and a montage of songs from
“Life is a Cabaret.” Camilla Zamora, HSPVA
graduate and founder of Bering Omega’s
Sing for Hope Event, awed the audience with
a stunning rendition of “La Vie En Rose” and
presented the Camille Zamora Award to
Diane Lokey Farb. Merging with HACS, the
organization now reaches approximately
12,500 at six clinics offering primary care for
adults, pediatric care, behavioral healthcare,
a pharmacy and much more.
