Jeffrey Fashion Cares NYC – 2017
LGBTQ – AIDS fundraiser | Mens Fashion Show NYC
This past Monday evening I had the pleasure of photographing at the Jeffrey Fashion Cares 2017 event at Intrepid Air & Space Museum. Started by Jeffrey Kalinsky and now in it’s 14th year (!!) in NYC, the event supports many important LGBTQ causes including the Elton John AIDS Foundation, the Hetrick-Martin Institute and Lambda Legal. Since its inception, the event has raised almost $15 million for New York– and Atlanta-based organizations supporting LGBTQ rights and HIV/AIDS awareness.
This years special honoree was Chris Salgardo, the president of Kiehl’s.
