Carson Kressley Hosts Miracle House 23rd Annual Gala Memorial Day Weekend in the Hamptons

Miracle House, a New York City charity that provides temporary housing, free meals and holistic support services to caregivers and patients coming to the city for critical medical treatment, announced today that its 23rd Annual Gala on Memorial Day Weekend will be hosted by Emmy-winning television star, Carson Kressley. The event will be held on May 25, 2013 at the Bridgehampton Tennis and Surf Club in Bridgehampton, New York.

Miracle House will present the first annual Miracle House Compassion Award to Countess Luann de Lesseps. The Miracle House Compassion Award is given to those who share an unwavering commitment to

Miracle House's core values: compassion, service, community and care giving. Recipients will have demonstrated this commitment by improving the health and wellness of those in need through selfless, courageous and compassionate acts.

This year, Miracle House will honor Jayma Cardoso and Gerry Logue, two exceptional, committed champions of Miracle House. Their longstanding support is truly inspiring and continues to have an immeasurable impact on Miracle House. Ms. Cardoso, co-owner of Montauk's The Surf Lodge, has been a dedicated sponsor of this event for many years as well as a steadfast supporter and devoted benefactor of Miracle House. Gerry Logue, current Miracle House Board Member and former Board President, has helped lead the organization for over 17 years.

The evening's featured performer will be Kristine W. She has 16 #1 dance hits and a record-setting string of nine consecutive #1s on the Hot Dance Club Songs chart over the past 15 years. Her chart successes find her in the top three of the last decade's club play artists trailing Madonna and Beyoncé.
