Not your typical holiday celebration, Children of Shelters’ annual Jingle & Mingle fundraiser took a page from Morocco’s book with their Marrakesh Nights theme. (Local delicacies and belly dancers included.) Co-chairs Katherine Simon, Sarah Gallo and executive committee member Alexandria Marchetti got festive at the transformed General’s Residence in Fort Mason, where the (first ever!) sold-out event raised hundreds of thousands for the organization’s quest to break poverty cycles for homeless children through educational opportunities.
