No Tie Dinner - La Dolce Vita is Saturday, April 12th at Frontiers of Flight Museum

The No Tie Dinner & Dessert Party is a benefit to raise funds for AIDS Services of Dallas (ASD), which provides housing and supportive services for low-income and formerly homeless men, women, children and families living with HIV/AIDS.
 

How does the event work?

 
Generous, fun people will host social gatherings – from backyard barbecues for 6 to formal dinners for 30+. The dinners will be casual or formal, large or small, gourmet to potluck. In return for their host’s hospitality, guests are asked to make a suggested donation of $50 or more to ASD. All dinner proceeds will go toward housing and supportive services for ASD clients.
 
On April 12, 2014 all dinner hosts and guests are invited to Frontiers of Flight Museum for a dessert celebration with entertainment, dancing, coffee and delightful desserts donated by some of Dallas’s finest caterers and restaurants. Fabulous items from Dallas designers, restaurants and stores will be available for bidding at the Auction. More than 2,000 are expected to attend, with nearly 200 volunteers contributing to the effort.
 
The theme for the April 12th event is appropriately entitled “La Dolce Vita” or “The Sweet Life” with the honorary chair being none other than one of  Dallas’ most charming philanthropists, LeeAnne Locken. Co-Chairs for the event are David Nelson and Dennis Kershner.
