2017 Taste of Italy

The Gloria Foundation’s Taste of Italy event raised more than $18,000 to benefit Partners for Women and Justice. Over 200 attendees enjoyed food and wine while raising money to benefit pro bono legal services for domestic violence victims.

The speaker for the evening was Robin Wilson, founder and CEO of Robin Wilson Home, a hypoallergenic interior design and materials company. Karen Arakelian said she met Wilson when she came into Design Consign, Arakelian’s consignment store which donates profits to the Gloria Foundation.
