FACING HISTORY AND OURSELVES CHARITY EVENT


New York, NY -- Nearly 100 attendees gathered for a private cocktail event at the Vivienne Tam Boutique on Tuesday, December 15th.

The event was hosted by Facing History and Ourselves-- an international educational and professional development organization whose mission is to engage students of diverse backgrounds in an examination of racism, prejudice, and antisemitism in order to promote the development of a more humane and informed citizenry.

Vivienne could not make it but her video addressing Facing History's great cause can be found above. Please see below some photos of the event! The night consisted of shopping, awareness, shared words, as well as shopping to benefit the cause and a raffle! Winnder received a signature Vivienne Tam leather cloud quilted clutch.

The Vivienne Tam team is honored to be able to support such a remarkable organization! Facing History's China Project was also recognized throughout the evening, and a portion of the proceeds will go to Facing History and Ourselves.
