Last night, the Fifth Annual Unbridled Eve Gala was held at the Galt House in Louisville, Kentucky.

Celebrities on hand included Miss America, Betty Cantrell, Bob Guiney, Mark Sanchez, Mike Mills, Sam Boyd, Mira Sorvino, Von Miller, Warren Moone, and Zach Lindsey.
Entertainment stretched a broad spectrum of country to pop to rock. Kentucky native, Wynonna Judd, opened the event with her powerful vocal prowless. Grammy-nominated singer, Robin Thicke, provided the dance groove, while John Elefante adn Dennis DeYoung brought in the rocking sound to the stage.
All of this fun ultimately goes to help numerous great causes, including five year beneficiary, Blessings in a Backpack. It is an organization that fights childhood hunger by providing needy elementary school students a backpack of food on the weekends. A portion of proceeds will also go to fourteen other non-profit organizations.
The Unbridled Charitable Foundation, Inc. and Unbridled Eve were founded by Tonya York Dees and Tammy York Day.
