The event was held last month at Simone & Son Jewelers in Huntington Beach and featured silent auctions and drawings for luxury items, including a vintage-style platinum and diamond ring donated by Simone & Son.

"I'm extremely proud of our entire team, for their tireless efforts in creating a successful event. We also wish to thank all of our generous sponsors and donors, without whom this event would not have been possible. We are honored that our contribution will help women and children who are displaced from their homes."
