    Kering Foundation Sets Date for Fourth Annual ‘Caring for Women’ Dinner in New York

    The Kering Foundation is returning to The Pool for its fourth annual Caring for Women dinner. The foundation will host the VIP event, which raises support for organizations working to end gender-based violence against women, at the midtown venue during New York Fashion Week on Sept. 11.

    “To ensure that women and children can live free from gender-based violence, we must commit to providing survivors with the resources and support necessary to rebuild their lives with autonomy and safety,” said Kering CEO and chairman François-Henri Pinault, also chairman of the Kering Foundation, which was founded in 2008.

    The event is supported by Kering-owned fashion houses including Gucci, Saint Laurent, Balenciaga, Bottega Veneta, Boucheron, Pomellato and Ginori 1735. Past dinner auctions, with spirited encouragement from Salma Hayek Pinault, have featured exclusive experiences and products from each brand. A Balenciaga “Couture Experience” has drawn winning bids from Lauren Sánchez and Kim Kardashian for two consecutive years, and last year’s dinner auctioned off a one-of-a-kind portrait of Madonna photographed by Steven Meisel. This September, Madonna herself will be in the room. The musician is on the host committee along with Hayek Pinault and Pinault, Colman Domingo, Demi Moore, Jessica Chastain and Julianne Moore. A dinner performance will be announced at a later date.

    Proceeds from the dinner will benefit four nonprofit organizations that provide support and resources for survivors of gender-based violence. This year’s recipients include Sanctuary for Families, FreeFrom, Violence Intervention Program, and Equality Now. Last year’s Caring for Women dinner raised over $3M.
