On Monday, November 7 a concert was held to benefit Only Make Believe, the charity that brings musical theatre to ill children, at the Millennium Hotel's Hudson Theatre. In addition, the evening also honored Kathie Lee Gifford for her "outstanding humanitarian efforts to help children in need." Karen LeFrak presented Gifford with the 2005 James Hammerstein Award.

Only Make Believe was founded in October 1999 at Rusk Institute's Pediatric Unit of the NYU Hospitals Center as a project of the James and Dena Hammerstein Foundation. Since its debut, the project has already provided hundreds of workshops for children in New York City medical facilities. For more information visit www.onlymakebelieve.org.
