The money that was made, by donation, was for the Tucson Police fund. The police then send the money to their charities of choice, they chose two. I cannot remember what they were offhand, perhaps someone might remember what was said at the awards ceremony?

Dear Gail, As I said in posting elsewhere on the Forum a little bit ago--yes, I am indeed STILL catching up on everything after Tucson, including viewing the excellent record of all your posts & photos from the Show. So, a sincere thank-you from me, for your hosting of your Meet the Curators party at Casa Vicente! That was a very special evening with a great group of people--thanks so much,
Pete

The funds raised for the police department will be given to the Special Olympics and The 100 Club. The 100 Club supports the families of officers who have been injured or killed in the line of duty.
