Hot Havana Night
An intimate evening with
The Jerry Mandel Jazz Band
Healthy Smiles 2nd annual Jazz fundraiser, Hot Havana Night, raised over $100,000 in net proceeds to help change the lives of children in Orange County. The evening was an incredible success with over 175 guests enjoying themselves in the Samueli Theater at the Orange County Performing Arts Center. An intimate evening of friends, fun and fundraising on Saturday September 8th, the night included a live performance by The Jerry Mandel Jazz Band, as well as salsa dancing, mojitos, tapas, and a live and silent benefit auction.
