Living Beyond Belief provides college stipends to New York City public school students who participate in HIV/AIDS prevention education while seniors in high school. Three hundred people attended the event, which was hosted by Oscar nominee Patricia Clarkson, Golden Globe winner Sally Kirkland, actor/playwright/novelist Charles Busch, and downtown diva Flotilla De Barge. The lively crowd was treated to a rousing rendition of “Moon River,” sung by legendary chanteuse Margaret Whiting.
