The annual gala dinner of theRafaël Health Institute at the Pavillon Gabriel in Paris on November 8, 2022 brought together a crowd of personalities from various backgrounds, but all united by the same desire to advance care against this scourge of cancer. Thus, the first lady of France Brigitte Macron, without the president but with her friend Bernard Montiel, – who presented the gala – made the trip, not far from the five-time world champion and five-time European champion Camille Lacourt. Accompanied by his dear and tender Alice Detollenaere, the 37-year-old swimmer displayed his new, particularly different look: an almost shaved head.
The two founders of the Rafaël Institute, doctors Eric Sebban and Alain Toledano, were able to appreciate the arrival of many celebrities who came to support this European center for integrative health which accompanies, free of charge, patients and their caregivers, during and after cancer, with deployment on chronic diseases through a dedicated program. Since its opening in early 2019, the institute has welcomed 3,200 patients, offered and evaluated 52,000 treatments. The appeal for donations that took place during the 4th annual gala dinner will make it possible to sustain free care for hundreds of patients for the coming year.
The comedian and actress Claudia Tagbo, the co-director of Untouchables Eric Toledano accompanied by his wife, the creators of the Ba&Sh house Barbara and Sharon, the actor Arnaud Ducret and his wife Claire Francisci or even the journalist Claire Chazal and the fashion expert Cristina Cordula are part of the guest list. Artist Richard Orlinski and songwriter John Mamann were also on hand. Donat Vidal Revel, Ariel Wizman, Sydney Toledano, Cyril Benzaquen, Donat Vidal Revel and Yann Moix also accepted this important invitation. Christian Estrosi and his wife Laura Tenoudji-Estrosi could not miss this event either.
