Eva Longoria Bastón, actress, producer and philanthropist, will serve as Honorary Chair and Keynote Speaker for this inspirational afternoon featuring panelists Patty Rodriguez - Senior Radio Producer of On Air with Ryan Seacrest; Brooke Burke - Actress, Influencer, Podcaster and Operation Smile Ambassador; Emiliana Guereca - Founder Women's March LA Foundation and Janice Freeman, recent THE VOICE contestant who will be a featured performer during the luncheon. The event's Host and Moderator will be Los Angeles native Yarel Ramos, also known as Univision's Journalist on Edicion Digital and Humanitarian. The event topics and theme include acknowledging women who understand the power of using their voice to make a change; Ways to empower women to impact their communities and the world; Sexism and Gender Bias - How can we change the culture? What conditions exist that still hold many women back; creating both work and family balance and more.

Global Gift Foundation USA's vision will be to INSPIRE, UNITE, EDUCATE, MOTIVATE women from different backgrounds, professional fields and age groups in an effort to celebrate each other's GROWTH & SUCCESSES. The WE series of motivational events started in Los Angeles in 2016 and featured Actress and Philanthropist Holly Robinson Peete; Model and Author Heidi Balvanera; successful Entrepreneur and Activist Kathryn Schotthoefer; Choreographer Robin Antin; Model and Influencer Kristen Bellamy as well as Moderator Kristina Guerrero.

These events are not only a powerful tool in support of the UN's Women's Empowerment Principles, the goal is to raise funds to support initiatives including scholarship programs for women and girls to be on equal footing with their male counterparts.

"Eva's recent #TimesUp statement perfectly sets the tone for our Women's Empowerment events," says Alina Peralta, Founder of Global Gift Foundation USA. "I recall her saying that 'it's not a moment, it's a movement.' That is exactly how we feel about the importance of creating events like our Women's Empowerment Luncheon and Speakers Panel. We want to develop a positive and inspiring movement that will create substantial change. We hope guests walk away feeling capable of lifting their voice and speaking their truths." 

Everyone, male and female are invited to attend this philanthropic afternoon featuring red carpet arrivals, an hors d'oeuvres and cocktail reception, a three-course lunch prepared by Yardbird Southern Table & Bar, raffle prizes, and a live performance.

The Global Gift Foundation USA seeks to create a positive impact on women, children and families that live in a current situation of need. This special event will raise funds and awareness towards building scholarships for young girls in need of pursuing and completing their education.

The Eva Longoria Foundation's vision is to empower Latinas to reach their potential through education and entrepreneurship.
