Cinema Against AIDS Cannes 2012
Kylie will be one of the chairs at a gala dinner and auction at the Cannes Film Festival to raise money for AmfAR. The annual event, held by the American Foundation for Aids Research (Amfar), has raised more than $70m (£44m) since launching in Cannes in 1993. The non-profit organisation is dedicated to supporting Aids research and HIV prevention and education.
Kylie has been a long-time supporter of the charity first appearing as a guest, helping Sharon Stone with the auction in Cannes and has since chaired three amfAR gala dinners in Los Angeles, New York and Paris.
Kylie said, ‘This is another great opportunity for me to support amfAR, an organisation whose work is so very important. I’m excited be one of the co-chairs at this event alongside some amazing personalities. Cannes, here we come!’
