It was a picture perfect day for Doris Bergman’s 12^th Annual Valentine Romance Oscar Luxury Lounge & Party held last weekend at the newly-remodeled Fig & Olive restaurant in West Hollywood.  The event was held to honor the 92^nd Annual Academy Awards.

The sun was shining and so were throngs of Hollywood movers and shakers who attended the invitation-only gifting lounge designed by Bergman to celebrate and pay homage to the film industry’s Oscar® nominated actors, former Oscar® winners, presenters, stylists, and industry VIPs.

In the spirit of giving back, guests and sponsors made monetary donations and/or donated unwrapped gifts for young adults (ages 13-18) for a post-holiday gift drive benefitting ‘Wednesday’s Child’ -- a weekly segment airing on KTTV FOX 11 News, Los Angeles, with Anchor Christine Devine. ‘Wednesday’s Child’ highlights ‘harder to place’ children in the LA County foster care system who are in need of adoptive families. 

“In Los Angeles County, there are more than 35,000 children receiving child welfare services," said social worker, Dr. William Wong.  

Wednesday’s Child is an adoption recruitment program that focuses on finding forever families for children in foster care. While some have special needs, many face more barriers finding adoptive families simply because they are older or are a part of a larger sibling group.
