A glamorous crowd of hundreds gathered at a luxurious Beverly Hills estate to support the Persian 4 Cure’s Second Annual Charity Dinner Gala and Fundraiser. Founded by Manizieh Yomtoubian, the nonprofit is dedicated to funding innovative cancer research. The evening’s mission was clear: to raise vital funds that will help drive progress in cancer research, expand access to care, and ultimately work toward prevention and cures for various types of cancer. “Together, let’s create a world where no one has to suffer from this devastating disease,” said Mrs. Yomtoubian, Founder of Persians 4 Cure.

At the elegant event, violinist Ramin Abrams serenaded guests with beautiful music while they enjoyed fine wines and cocktails from Shokrian Vineyards, Darioush Winery, and El Fogonero Tequila. The catering, provided by Volare in Sherman Oaks, offered a blend of Italian cuisine with a Persian twist—think gourmet pizza baked in an igloo-shaped brick oven, skewers of grilled steak, chicken, and lamb, along with the beloved Persian rice dish, Tahdig. The sweet touch came with traditional Persian desserts like baklava and saffron ice cream.

As the night progressed, guests were entertained by a magician and the lively sounds of the LA Daf Ensemble band. The atmosphere was filled with laughter when Persian comedian K-Von appeared on stage and delighted the audience with his hilarious skit. By midnight, guests were dancing under the stars, capping off a night that was both magical and meaningful.
