Last night we went to Mellon Auditorium for the annual Refugees International dinner.
Queen Noor of Jordan was a guest of honor for the evening; she's dedicated herself to the cause of refugees, especially in Jordan. We snapped her with RI Board Chair Eileen Shields-West.
The evening's host, actor Matt Dillon, joins his girlfriend, actress Roberta Mastromichele.
At the VIP reception: TTR Sotheby's Shamim Jawad with her son, Leidos' Iman Jawad, and acclaimed photographer Didi Cutler.
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce's Madeline Wright with Neil Herrington and his wife, Alexandria Hospital's Reagan Herrington, and RI's Mark Yarnell. Guests nibbled ceviche crisps and delicious beef empanadas.
Following the reception, guests enjoyed a lavish three-course dinner with a program honoring Maureen Orth for her work with refugees in Colombia. Here, Nexus Fund's Sally Smith, RI volunteer Nancy Ordway, and Evers Real Estate's Kate Sheckells.
