Generosity Water's fourth annual "Night of Generosity" gala took to the Hollywood Roosevelt on May 4, offering guests a bit of education with their dinner and entertainment. After walking a blue carpet and entering the historic lobby lounge, guests experienced the so-called "water walk," created by producer Kapture Vision along with the support of Kristen Tarsiuk and Alistair Chang. The walk took attendees through a deconstructed wooden corridor where they wore headphones and learned about the water crisis around the world. Four informational display panels also fit the rustic village motif, and guests had the option to donate to the cause in multiple areas of the party throughout the night.

“Our goal was to create a space that not only entertained the guests, but also inspired generosity from each one of them,” said Kapture's Nilo G. "Whether it was a donation station or the live water well auction, we succeeded in giving each person an opportunity to give to the cause in a way that was meaningful to them."

Including a $100,000 live auction, Generosity Water raised more than $150,000 toward building clean water wells in Ghana, Haiti, and Ethiopia.
