Talk show host Wendy Williams will host the benefit, which will induct fashion photographer and AIDS activist Duane Cramer, Morgan Stanley managing director Carla A. Harris, and five-time Grammy Award-winner and activist Dionne Warwick into the Hall of Hope and Remembrance.

Composer Jonathan Larson will be posthumously inducted, as well, for spreading awareness about the HIV/AIDS epidemic through his Pulitzer Prize-winning musical Rent.

Additionally, the event will recognize reporters and anchors from WABC7, WCBS2, WLNY55, and WNBC4 for drawing attention to HIV/AIDS in New York City and their support of the organization.
