Baby2Baby Gala Fetes Demi Moore and Raises Over $20M for the Cause

Demi Moore was the woman of honor at this year’s Baby2Baby Gala, receiving the Giving Tree Award for her work in advocating for vulnerable children.

The event, presented by Paul Mitchell, took over West Hollywood’s Pacific Design Center on Saturday, bringing out a star-studded group of Hollywood mothers in support of the organization. The night raised over $20 million in support of Baby2Baby, which provides basic essential items to children in need. Over the last 15 years, the nonprofit, led by co-CEOs Kelly Sawyer Patricof and Norah Weinstein, has distributed 850 million items — including diapers, formula and clothing — to children across the country.

Moore was tapped as this year’s headlining honoree, with Andrew Garfield on hand to present her award. During her speech, she asked guests to take a deep breath, saying, “That breath is the breath of relief Baby2Baby provides when a mother no longer has to choose between dinner and diapers, rent or formula. Your child matters. You matter. You are not alone. That is what community is all about. Baby to baby, mother to mother, soul to soul.”

Kerry Washington, Keke Palmer, Ciara, Chrissy Teigen, Jessica Alba, Jenna Dewan, Julie Bowen, Katy Perry and Kelly Rowland also took part in the evening’s program, following a top-tier dinner with offerings from L.A. hotspots including Carbone, Cheesesteaks By Matū, Found Oyster, Funke, Kato, Kazunori by Sushi Nozawa, Moo’s Craft Barbecue, Mr Chow, Saffy’s and Sqirl, with late-night bites from Burger She Wrote, Chainsaw, Henry’s Secret Ice Cream, Jon & Vinny’s, Lei’d Cookies and Leora. Cardi B closed out the event with a performance of many of her hits, accompanied by a 20-piece band.
