Report of the Girard-Perregaux cocktail in Paris with Nile Rodgers (music inside!).
I had the big privilege yesterday to attend an event organized in Paris
by Girard-Perregaux to support the "We are Family" fundation created by
Nile Rodgers after the 11th of September attacks. The surprise was the
presence of Nile Rodgers himself who took the opportunity to present his
fundation and the close relationships he has with France.
Simultaneously, two young people presented their achievements and their
projects in the context of the fundation. It was obviously the key part
of the evening since it was an impressive demonstration of the impact,
of the influence of such fundation with actual and tangible results.
Sometimes, we don't see what are the outcomes of non-profit
organizations. "We are Family" has a clear aim: it is dedicated to the
vision of a global family by creating and supporting programs that
inspire and educate the next generation while striving to solve some of
the biggest global problems in the world.
Girard-Perregaux is a perfect partner and supporter because it is a brand which embodies elegance and discretion and discretion is required in this kind of involvement. The way the event was organized is a proof of this statement: if Michele Sofisti did the introduction speech explaining the reasons behind this support, the stage then was fully dedicated to Nancy Hunt (President of the Fundation), to the 2 young people who described in details their projects and of course to Nile Rodgers. I really appreciated this attitude.
