Latin stars join Daisy Fuentes in honoring Emilio and Gloria Estefan for their commitment to international healthcare, the local community and their presence in the music and entertainment industry.

"We are overwhelmed with pride to be honored by such an esteemed group," said Gloria Estefan. "We are especially grateful for the hospital's life saving efforts throughout Latin America. The St. Jude International Outreach Program offers hope for sick children and their families, and they also share their medical knowledge with the doctors who treat these children in their hometowns and villages."

The money raised will help more than 5,000 young cancer patients currently receiving care from St. Jude - all at no cost to their families. The gala kicks off at 6:00 p.m. for a cocktail reception and silent auction in which guests can bid on items including a shopping spree at Saks Fifth Avenue and dinner for ten with artist Romero Britto. The ceremony will include testimonials by St. Jude patient survivors, live performances and an elegant dinner.

"FedEx is thrilled to have the Estefan's join us in the critical partnership with St. Jude. No place in the world does what St. Jude does for children stricken with leukemia and other cancers," said Julio C. Barrionuevo, Vice President of Finance, Planning and Engi
