The New York Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NYSPCC), founded in 1875, is the first – and one of the most highly respected – child protection agencies in the world. The NYSPCC responds to the complex needs of abused and neglected children, and those involved in their care, by providing best practice counseling, legal and educational services. Through research, communications and training initiatives, we work to expand these programs to prevent abuse and help more children heal.

The NYSPCC's unique work is used as a model for child welfare agencies across the nation. Since its founding, The NYSPCC has investigated more than 650,000 cases on the behalf of over two million children, and has educated over 46,000 professionals on how to identify and report child abuse and neglect.

This past Monday night, Seth & Alexi Meyers, Elie Tahari, Diane von Furstenberg, Glamour Editor-In-Chief Cindi Leive, Ann Curry, Top Chef Master Sang Yoon, NY Jets David Nelson, Alison and Howard Lutnick, Sarah Hughes, Sara Ziff, Chris Del Gatto and Veronica Webb and many others came out to support Worldwide Orphans at their 9th Annual Gala in at Cipriani in NYC. Seth Meyers hosted and the evening honored exceptional Worldwide Orphans ambassadors including long-time supporter Diane von Furstenberg and Dr. Sophie Mengistu, WWO Ethiopia Country Director.

There were certainly some light moments throughout the night, though. Before walking the blue carpet, fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg helped Dr. Jane Aronson tie her signature DVF wrap dress that Jane had
put on incorrectly with the help of her two sons. Amy Poehler shared a video expressing the need for people to donate as it makes them skinny, but also shared that she was so upset that she couldn't attend as Seth has a restraining order against her.

Finally, Seth Meyers recounted the time he got a flat tire in Dr. Jane Aronson's driveway and how Jane coerced the gas station attendant to replace it. For her help, Jane playfully suggested that Seth host the November 18th gala; he so happily agreed.

Founded in 1997 by renowned adoption medicine specialist, Dr. Jane Aronson, the mission of Worldwide Orphans is to transform the lives of orphaned children to help them become healthy, independent, productive members of their communities and the world. WWO programs bring love, play, health care and hope to orphans and at-risk children through programs focused on attachment, early intervention, health care, sport WWO currently has programs in Bulgaria, Ethiopia, Haiti, Serbia, and Vietnam.

This award is presented to individuals who personify the values and commitment necessary to preserve the dignity of family life. The Dignity of Family Life Award has been created in remembrance of the occasion of the very first Abbott House fund-raising dinner when the honoree, Nobel Laureate Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., delivered a speech he titled "The Dignity of Family Life: an Address at Abbott House, Westchester County, NY October, 29, 1965." In it, Dr. King noted that Abbott House is "serving humanity in a most constructive way."
