On February 14, friends of Partnership with Children gathered at the beautiful Upper East Side penthouse of Jeffrey and Elizabeth Peek to announce the organization's upcoming Centennial Ball.

Partnership with Children is celebrating its 100th anniversary with their Turn of Our Century Centennial Ball at the Pierre Hotel on April 16th. Mr. Henry Ittleson, a descendant of the founders, has arranged for his company, CIT (which is also celebrating its 100th anniversary) to underwrite this Centennial Ball. This festive event, for which we encourage period dress, will honor Jeffrey M. Peek, president and CEO of CIT Group, Inc., with the 2008 Ann Vanderbilt Award. Started by New York leading ladies Mrs. William K. Vanderbilt, Mrs. Henry Ittleson, Mrs. Charles Dana Gibson, and Mrs. Henry O. Havemeyer at the turn of the last century, Partnership with Children was created by the city's first families to help at risk children to graduate from high school.

Among those attending were John and Susan Gutfreund, Liz Fondaras, Alexandra Lebenthal and Jay Diamond, Sylvester and Gillian Miniter, Susan Cheever, Rick and Candace Beineke, Thomas and Ann Tisch, Brooke and Dan Neidich, Patricia and Andrew Soussloff, Joyce Brown and H. Carl McCall, Maria  Bartolomo, Susan Baker, Lynne White, Richard Turley and Partnership with Children directors Michelle Sidrane and Amy Norman.
