Green Grass, Isa Zapata and international photographer Sergio Fama teamed up for a “Love Fest” event featuring artist Isa Zapata’s signature hearts. A total of 5% of the proceeds went to the International Rescue Committee to help the survivors of the earthquake in Haiti.

For the third consecutive year, under the umbrella of Give to Colombia, several U.S.-based organizations working for Colombia hosted BeLive at The Viceroy Hotel in Miami. The annual Gala seeks to raise awareness about Colombia’s social needs. Among other highlights, the event held a successful silent auction with The Mochila Project; where 40 of the world’s best fashion designers such as Carolina Herrera, Oscar de la Renta and Vera Wang, among others, were given a traditional Wayuu bag to be updated and embellished in their own unique way. OndadeMar also unveiled their Spring 2010 swimsuit collection while Grammy winner Jorge Celedon kept guests entertained!
