Project Sunshine, a nonprofit organization that provides free programs to children and families facing medical challenges, honored real estate executive Billy Macklowe, president of Macklowe Properties, at its Third Annual Gala, “Sunshine Over Manhattan,” at the Waldorf Astoria on May 15.

The event, which had over 1000 guests, raised $1.5 million. Chairpersons of the 2006 Gala included Mitchell Konsker, of Cushman & Wakefield, and Robert Vogliano, of EvansonBest. Ace Greenberg, of Bear Stearns, and his merry magicians performed magic during the cocktail hour. Dionne Warwick and the Harlem Boys Choir provided the night's entertainment. All proceeds from the event benefited Project Sunshine services and activities.
