Medical Bridges One People, One World
Honored Drs. Mary Ann and Bob Wilkins and Leisa Holland Nelson
Just after Memorial Day weekend, Bobby Dees, General Manager of Saks, and over 80 supporters at the ever fabulous Saks shoe department on Tuesday, May 27 kicked off the 2014 One People, One World Gala benefiting Medical Bridges that is scheduled to be held on September 27, 2014 at Hilton Post Oak.
The Gala Chairman, Dr. Kelli Cohen Fein was under the weather so Chairman Barbara Van Postman, along with Honorary Chairman Margaret Alkek Williams, circulated and visited as the band played and guests sipped and nibbled, to talk about the upcoming event and all that Medical Bridges is doing to continue bridging the healthcare gap, connecting those who have with those who hope. Donating surplus medical supplies around the globe impacts so many lives.
