By spotlighting the numerous facets of Autism Speaks, the Discoveries of Hope Foundation (through our Hollywood for a Cure Campaign) will assist this charitable organization in raising more funds to continue its mission of heightened public awareness for autism research, education and social support programs. Guests will have the opportunity to mix with influencers, celebrity tastemakers, corporate executives and some of LA’s most influential community leaders. This much anticipated gala event is sure to be one of the most highlighted events of the year. Autism Speaks’ tagline is “It’s time to listen”; answering its call is Hollywood for a Cure, with a response of “Hollywood is listening”. All proceeds from this event will benefit Autism Speaks.
