On Wednesday, April 30, 2025, the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts in Beverly Hills hosted The Wallis Delivers, a moving and elegant evening dedicated to supporting Los Angeles wildfire recovery efforts. Set amidst the architectural beauty of The Wallis and under the leadership of its Executive Director and CEO Robert van Leer, the event brought together influential figures from entertainment, finance, and philanthropy for an unforgettable night of giving back.
The evening was hosted by legendary actress, producer, and activist Jane Fonda, who brought grace and gravitas to the event. The spotlight shone brightest when Dominic Ng, Chairman and CEO of East West Bank, was named the inaugural recipient of The Wallis Icon Award, recognizing his groundbreaking work in corporate philanthropy and cross-cultural engagement.
