Face the World, Jacqui Cohen - Catherine Barr

ANGELS dwell among us. And if you don't want to take my word for it, just ask Vancouver's most famous glamour gal - Jacqui Cohen. Her parties have been the talk of the town for 10 years now, so this year there was a lot to celebrate. The Face the World Foundation and its patron "angels" have raised more than $2 million dollars over the past decade thanks to the generosity of the jet-set crowd. And while the outfits and antics are a constant source of water-cooler gossip, there's no mistaking all the good work that results from evenings like these. A big thanks to everyone, including our own North Shore gang below, for all of their givings.
