Several celebrities, including vegetarian Alyssa Milano, Anderson Cooper, Lawrence Bender and Howard Ruby will be honored at the National Wildlife Federation’s “Voices for Wildlife” gala on June 15 for their efforts to protect wildlife.
The 75th anniversary event of NWF is being recognized by the Environmental Media Association’s “Green Seal of Events,” because it has taken measures to ensure the event is environmentally conscious.
“A longtime animal rights activist and environmentalist, Milano has supported numerous organizations and served as an ambassador for UNICEF,” NWF said in a press release.
Cooper, Bender and Ruby are being recognized for acts such as featuring documentaries about habitat threats, raising awareness about global warming and world class photography that drew attention to wildlife.
Guests at the event will enjoy cocktails, dinner and an awards ceremony. NWF has also invited some of the creatures it has served to protect over the years and guests will have a chance to interact with those animals as well.
