The Jenesse Center, Inc., Silver Rose Weekend 2012, started with an Awards Gala & Auction at the Beverly Hills Hotel, in Beverly Hills, CA.
Jenesse Center, Inc., was founded in 1980 by five African American women who were survivors of domestic violence.
Our Mission -
"To provide victims of domestic violence with a comprehensive, centralized base of support to assist them in addressing their immediate crisis and changing the patterns of their lives."
This year's Honorees were:
XEROX Corporation, Paula Williams Madison, Ingrid Roberts, and Schinal Walker, whose compelling story can bring one to tears. Schinal Walker is a resilient, woman, whose only recourse was to seek help. Her friends, the beautiful Actress, Jurnee Smollett and her sister, Jazz Smollett, who are both very active on screen and in the community, told Schinal to choose safety.
These two sisters, Jurnee and Jazz Smollett, have hearts of gold, and have been there for Schinal Walker from day one.
Tomorrow, Monday, April 16, 2012, is the Halle Berry Celebrity Golf Classic Auction & Awards Dinner at the Wilshire Country Club, Los Angles, CA. This wraps up a fabulous weekend of so many people of all walks of life, supporting Jenesse Center, which provides "a peaceful night's sleep and a new beginning" for those women and children who have been living in unsafe environments.
Speaking of Halle Berry, she looks fabulous! Halle is the Chair of the Silver Rose Awards Gala and Auction.
Halle Berry was such a gracious Host and she lovingly embraced fellow Actress, Nadia Buari,
of Ghana. Nadia has starred in 35 + films in West Africa. (Nadia Buari's Publicist in USA - Carla Thomas)
There's more to come....Smooches, Carla
