SWITZERLAND. Swiss watch maker Frederique Constant has been named the official sponsor of a prestigious charity event hosted by the US actress Eva Longoria.
The Par Coeur Gala, hosted by the founders of the Par Coeur Association, actress Eva Longoria and NBA star Tony Parker, will be held 20 September 2010 in Paris.
The Par Coeur Association, a French foundation, seeks to highlight charities that make substantial differences in the lives of families and children worldwide.
This year, the gala will benefit Toutes A L’Ecoles, a non-profit organisation that operates to create schools and educational programmes for young girls in developing countries, as well as Eva’s Heroes, a non-profit organisation for people with developmental challenges.
The annual Par Coeur Gala is attended by prestigious guests and celebrities, with the aim of benefiting Par Coeur Association’s charity partners.
“We are proud to be the official partner for this year’s Par Coeur Gala,” said Frederique Constant CEO Peter Stas. “We are committed to celebrating and supporting those passionate charitable organisations that go the extra mile to improve the lives of less fortunate people worldwide. Thus, Frederique Constant and the Par Coeur Association form a perfect match.”
Said Eva Longoria: “Each year, the gala gains more and more attention and attendees, and we are so honoured to have Frederique Constant participate as our official sponsor. This year’s Par Coeur Gala will bring together individuals who are dedicated to making a contribution to improving the lives of young girls.”
