LOS ANGELES, September 27, 2024 — Last night, The Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation (ETAF) honored multi-award-winning entertainment icon Jennifer Hudson and President and CEO of Gap Inc. Richard Dickson at the fifth annual Elizabeth Taylor Ball to End AIDS fundraising gala held at The Beverly Hills Hotel. Hudson accepted the first-ever Elizabeth Taylor Rowdy Activist Award for her ongoing support for people living with HIV, and for the LGBTQ+ community while Dickson accepted The Elizabeth Taylor Commitment to End AIDS Award for his longstanding support of people affected by HIV and AIDS. The elegant evening featured a showstopping performance by singer-songwriter Natasha Bedingfield

 

Generously supported by Presenting Sponsor Gilead Sciences, Inc., the gala was hosted by model, actress and author Dominique Jackson. The Elizabeth Taylor Ball to End AIDS included a seated dinner and an exciting live auction in partnership with Christie’s featuring art and luxury experiences with Brett Sherlock serving as auctioneer. Guests were given an up-close look at exclusive items from The Elizabeth Taylor Archive including highlights from Elizabeth Taylor’s personal life.

 

Event Highlights:

  • On-stage while accepting the Elizabeth Taylor Rowdy Activist AwardJennifer Hudson said, “We all deserve to live our life with great purpose and that is why I will always continue to advocate. I will always use my platform to advocate for all of us, to end stigma, to end prejudice and anything that makes anyone feel less than anyone else.” 
  • While accepting The Elizabeth Taylor Commitment to End AIDS AwardRichard Dickson shared, “Living in New York and working in fashion, I was exposed to the epidemic head on. It was a remarkably dark and stigmatizing time – I knew many people that were affected by HIV and I lost people that I cared about.” He continued, “Today, while we’ve made significant progress, we still have a fight. Right now, more than nine million people still miss out on treatment, including 660,000 children who are living with HIV and that’s just not acceptable. Together we can bridge that gap.” 
  • While on stage, Quinn Tivey shared, “When grandma first established ETAF in 1991, she recognized what sadly remains crystal clear today, which is that the HIV and AIDS crisis extends far beyond health concerns as you consider it in its fullest scope – it’s a social justice crisis that affects different communities in their own unique ways.”
