The 2nd Annual Women's Tea to benefit Easter Seals was held at the Four Seasons Hotel in Las Vegas on Monday, August 18th. Easter Seals Nevada honored Olivia Newton-John with First-Ever "Four Star Award" for Outstanding Charitable Contributions.
One of the world's most beloved entertainers and philanthropists, Newton-John has sold more than 100 million albums worldwide, been honored with numerous awards, topped the charts with ten No. 1 hits and starred in the classic musical films "Grease" with John Travolta and "Xanadu" with Gene Kelly. After nearly 10 years of fundraising, Olivia is thrilled that the Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Centre (ONJCWC) opened in her hometown of Melbourne, Australia in 2012. A portion of every ticket sold to her Flamingo concerts will benefit the ONJCWC.
Her Flamingo residency will run through January 2015.
Easter Seals Nevada also honored three remarkable ladies who have made a significant impact to the Las Vegas community and in the Easter Seals organization. The 2014 Women's Tea "Tremendous Three" honorees included:
-Terri Peck, Director of Marketing & Entertainment, FOX 5 Las Vegas
- Christie Garness, Event Specialist, City of Las Vegas
- Tonia Chafetz, General Manager, Tivoli Village.
