Seal will perform at the 2019 DKMS Gala in NYC on May 1.

DKMS is an international nonprofit fighting blood cancers and blood disorders. It all started with one family’s search for a bone marrow donor. Today, DKMS is the world’s largest bone marrow donor center. So far, DKMS has registered 9 million potential donors and facilitated 77,000 transplants. However, thousands of patients are still waiting for their lifesaving matches.

DKMS supports patients by registering more donors, raising awareness, and improving therapies and research— all in an effort to provide them with a second chance at life. 100% of the proceeds from the Gala fund the DKMS mission to delete blood cancer once and for all.

Among those expected to attend are: Honoree Bob Cusimano Managing Director, Bank of America Merrill Lynch and a Blood Cancer Survivor; Performance by Seal: Hosted by Tom Brokaw NBC News Senior Correspondent; Live Auction Host Lord Dalmeny, Sotheby’s Chairman, UK & Ireland; and Global Ambassador Katharina Harf. Event Chairs Olivier & Valérie Goudet and Honorary Chairs: DKMS co-founder Peter & Tina Harf (JAB Holiding Company, s.à.r.l.); Bob Gamgort (Keurig Dr Pepper); Pierre Laubies (Coty, Inc.), Angelina & Monte Lipman (Republic Records) and Charlotte & Alejandro Santo Domingo (Quadrant Capital Advisors). Along with guests: Derek Lam and others…
