The W Hotel is opening up the Living Room, within the W Hotel lobby, to the public. Everyone is invited to come by to support the cause and have a great time. The celebration and red carpet arrivals begin at 10 pm.

"This is where I live, a city that has brought me so much joy," said Sharper. "I take pride in this city and it is up to each and every one of us to take part in cleaning up our gulf and making a difference!"

"I want to set an example and let people know that this is still a major issue here," said Harper. "With United Way's help we all can take part in bringing back the true spirit of Louisiana.
