Western Pennsylvania Hospital Foundation's Friendship Ball - 2/28/09
The Western Pennsylvania Hospital Foundation added more “C”s to the four C’s of diamond grading — cut, color, clarity, and carat — at this year’s Friendship Ball: Cocktails, a cash bar, and a Chinese auction were part of the “All That Glitters”-themed celebration at the Westin Convention Center Hotel. Attendees of the sparkly soirée shined in their black-tie ensembles while dining, dancing, and bidding on items in three separate auctions, including a Tiffany & Co. auction. One lucky winner added some glitz to the evening’s attire with an 18K gold, diamond-encrusted pendant with matching earrings from the New York City jeweler. Proceeds from the event benefited the renovation of West Penn Manor, a part of West Penn Hospital. Photography by Megan Wylie.
