UNAIDS fundraising gala to increase access to HIV services for women and children

19 May 2017

UNAIDS, in collaboration with Cartier, the hotel InterContinental Geneva and Design Miami, is organizing a fundraising gala to take place on 12 June, during Art Basel week in Basel, Switzerland.

The gala will aim to raise funds to increase access to HIV prevention and treatment services for women and children worldwide. The event will be hosted by HRH Princess Eugenie of York, Caroline Rupert and Ndaba Mandela.

This year’s gala will feature a live performance and an exclusive design auction boasting one-of-a-kind contributions by the world’s best designers. It will be led and curated by Simon de Pury and Design Miami, who have enlisted a roll call of who’s who in the design world in support of UNAIDS.

Tickets to participate can be purchased here.

In 2016, the UNAIDS gala raised critical funds to stop new HIV infections among children through donations from people in attendance, a live auction and a silent auction. Last year’s supporters included Keanu Reeves, Michael Chow, Francisco Costa, Wade Guyton, Lenny Kravitz, Doutzen Kroes, Jude Law, Vik Muniz, Behati Prinsloo, Aby Rosen, Ed Ruscha, Cindy Sherman, Patrick Stewart, Charlize Theron, Francesco Vezzoli and Naomi Watts.
