Dine with stars for R7 500

AN AMOUNT of R7 500 will earn you a chance to dine with a South African celeb and a “meet-andgreet” with Hollywood star Priyanka Chopra.

It’s all in the name of charity – for the United Nations Children’s Fund’s (Unicef) first fundraising gala in South Africa.

Unicef said its inaugural fundraiser at the Hyatt Regency Hotel‚ in Rosebank‚ Johannesburg on May 6‚ “is a VIP event that will help catalyse further investments for children in need”.

Chopra‚ who stars in the Hollywood blockbuster series Quantico and is Unicef’s goodwill ambassador‚ will be chief guest at the dinner‚ which will also see the likes of television personality Jo-Ann Strauss and performer Zakes Bantwini.

Four tables‚ at R75 000 each‚ have been reserved‚ while another table is available at R50 000 and seats at R5 000 each.

Sandra Bisin‚ Unicef’s spokesman‚ said the dinner and Chopra’s SA visit will highlight its global “Ending Violence against Children” campaign.

“The gala dinner will be a key public advocacy moment to call on everyone in SA to end violence against children‚” added Bisin.

The evening will also feature a fashion show by designer Gavin Rajah and a live auction. — TMG
