Journalist Lisa Ling will host the evening, which will include guests representing Kering’s fashion houses, including Gucci, Saint Laurent, Bottega Veneta, Balenciaga, Alexander McQueen, Brioni, and Pomellato, as wells Christie’s, Ginori 1735, Cartier, Caruso, Hearst and the Neiman Marcus Group.

The event’s theme will be “Strength In Numbers.” Last year’s inaugural dinner raised more than $3 million for NGOs that address gender-based violence.

“Among the many lessons learned since creating the Kering Foundation is that there is enormous strength in community, and gathering together a strong coalition of friends, partners, and allies at the Caring For Women Dinner is one way we can take collective action to address this systemic but solvable problem,” François-Henri Pinault, chairman and CEO of Kering and chairman of the Kering Foundation, said in statement Tuesday. “Despite alarming setbacks for women’s rights around the world, there has been heartening progress to address violence against women in the last 15 years, and we must continue to harness the power of collaboration and solidarity to ensure that all women can lead fulfilling lives free from violence.”

The foundation has been working since 2008 to support organizations in six countries that work to end gender-based violence.
