I have had the great honor to work alongside our very talented and dedicated board members, to present the annual A Vintage Affair event, a major fundraising event benefiting Children’s National Hospital. I stand in awe of our board members for their dedication and commitment to the success of A Vintage Affair, which has raised over six million dollars since 2015.
