On June 1st, the Greenwich International Film Festival hosted the Third Annual Changemaker Honoree Gala. This year, we were honored to present humanitarians Renée Zellweger and Christy Turlington Burns with the Changemaker Award, as well as the first ever Community Changemaker Award to Andrew Niblock, local community hero and Head of the Greenwich Country Day Lower School.
The night began with a Cocktail Reception at Betteridge, co-presented by Cartier. Surrounded by stunning jeweled watches, guests sipped on Moet & Chandon while mingling with the night’s honorees. Guests then moved down to L’Escale Restaurant & Bar for the Gala, where our honorees were presented with their awards.
Thank you to our incredibly gracious honorees for speaking about their passions with such poise. Although Andrew Niblock could not join us for the Gala, we were honored to have his wife, Eliza, accept his award on his behalf. Thank you to the extremely talented Jenna Bush Hager for acting as the Master of Ceremonies for the evening.
