Generosity was in fashion Oct. 21 as The Center on Halsted, 3656 N. Halsted, hosted the Hetrick-Martin Institute ( HMI ) and the Harvey Milk High School Event sponsored by Levis, The Advocate and Absolut Vodka with celebrity Jenny Shimizu ( from Bravo's Make Me a Supermodel ) . Attendees enjoyed cocktails and hors d'oeurves while hosts stressed the importance of donating to HMI, an organization that provides at-risk LGBTQ youth free education and programming in New York City. A live auction featuring prize packages ranging from a year of free Levi jeans to a shopping trip with Schimizu gathered more than $3,000 in donations.
