Held yearly since
2005, the Mann Foundation’s Mann of the Year Awards
is one of the most prestigious awards ceremonies in
New York City. Stemming from Jeff Mann’s love for
the Real Estate, Fashion, and Wall Street
industries, each year the Mann Foundation pays
homage to individuals from these industries that
have made an impact for the good of their field as
well as the community.
Proceeds from the
Mann of the Year awards go towards the Alzheimer’s
Disease Research Center (ADRC) at Mount Sinai.
Together with the ADRC, the Mann Foundation hopes to
one day find a cure for the devastating disease,
which took the life of Mr. Mann’s mother, Marion
Mann.
This year, the
Mann Foundation presents the 6th Annual Mann of the
Year Awards, which will be held at the legendary
Cipriani 42nd Street. This cocktail gala will
display gorgeous food stations adorned with
mouth-watering delicacies and delectable cuisine as
well as an open bar for invited guests.
Most note-worthy,
this year’s presenter is the celebrated anchor from
ESPN’s SportsCenter, Linda Cohn. As last year’s
Woman of the Year honoree, Linda will be back to
host this year’s festivities.
