2018 Changemaker Gala Highlights

Last night, the Greenwich International Film Festival hosted the Fourth Annual Changemaker Honoree Gala. This year, we were honored to present Ashley Judd with the Changemaker Award, as well Duncan Edwards with the Community Changemaker Award.

The night began with a Cocktail Reception at Betteridge. Guests then moved down to L’Escale Restaurant & Bar for the Gala, where our honorees were presented with their awards.

Thank you to our amazing honorees, Ashley and Duncan. Their speeches were inspiring, thought-provoking, sprinkled with humor, and kept the audience captivated from the moment they made it to the stage.  Thank you to the extremely talented Jenna Bush Hager for acting as the Master of Ceremonies for the evening.

Thank you to our sponsors for the evening: Betteridge, Moffly Media, Vivino, Lifewtr, the Perrone Brothers and McArdle’s Florist.
