THE AMERICAN ACADEMY OF HOSPITALITY SCIENCES

Celebrity Fight Night, founded by Jimmy Walker, is recognized as one of the nation’s elite charity events. In a special international expansion, the foundation left its hometown of Phoenix, AZ, to celebrate in Florence, Italy. During this event, families of the most exclusive Italian fashion houses joined celebrities such as Sharon Stone, Reba McEntire, David Foster, Ronnie Dunn, and Larry King to raise funds and awareness for critical organizations.

Approximately 100 philanthropic donors and special guests enjoyed dinner and entertainment with Andrea Bocelli while being treated to the very best arts and culture throughout the Tuscany region. These festivities culminated in a gala dinner where all proceeds benefited the Andrea Bocelli Foundation and the Muhammad Ali Parkinson Center at the Barrow Neurological Institute.
