Guests were treated to a gifting suite, sit down lunch, raffle, and awards ceremony honoring US Marine Veteran Rosa Macias, Parkland school shooting survivor and advocate for epilepsy awareness Kaitlyn August, blind filmmaker Aaron Vnuk, and actress and entrepreneur Sasha Anne for donating her Sugar & Spice Nail Polish collection to female veterans.
