Gorgeous and Green Gala
Global Green USA hosted its fifth Annual San Francisco Benefit Party – the Gorgeous and Green Gala – with a sold-out crowd of over 500 guests on December 8th, 2009 at the LEED-certified W San Francisco. The evening celebrated the organization's partnership with Habitat for Humanity and PG&E to help build the first LEED Gold-certified Habitat homes in California, The Edes Avenue development in Oakland, in addition to their other efforts across the Bay Area and the country to advance smart climate solutions. The event was co-chaired by Zem Joaquin and Nadine Weil along with Vice-Chairs Christopher and Amber Marie Bently. Guests enjoyed an eco-chic fashion show while sipping 360 Vodka cocktails and Newton Vineyard wines.
