About Young variety: On Christmas Eve in 1927, a baby was left on the doorstep of a theater company with a note attached reading:
“Please take care of my baby, her name is Catherine. I can no longer take care of her, I have eight others. My husband is out of work. She was born on Thanksgiving Day. I have always heard of the goodness of show business and I pray to God that you will look after her.”
-A Heart-Broken Mother
As a result, Variety Club International (now Variety – The Children’s Charity) was founded by the eleven entertainers who discovered Baby Catherine. Its sole purpose was to help the less fortunate and to lend a hand to various civic and charitable organizations. Variety is a not-for-profit organization that takes pride in providing programs and services to special-needs children.
Currently, Variety has over 50 tents nationally and internationally.
Philadelphia magazine’s Martini Madness will be held on Wednesday, March 31st, from 6-830 pm at the National Constitution Center. Guests can enjoy a variety of martinis and fabulous cocktails, light fare, music and dancing. Tickets are $50. For more info and tickets: phillymag.com/martinimadness.
