Donald Trump, Jonathan Cheban, Juwanna Kidd and others joined Eric Trump and HudsonMod on Sunday, September 28th at Concourse For the Kids benefiting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
The first thing I said when I arrived at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey on Sunday, September 28th for the Eric Trump “Concourse For The Kids’ event benefiting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital was ‘What a beautiful day for a charity event’.
The sun was shining, the luxury cars were lined up, the HudsonMod gift bags were over flowing and everyone was in for a great and fun day.
I have to start with the cake from Carlos Bakeryaka Cake Boss. Look at this amazing piece of cake! They had plenty of delicious treats for guests including miniature cannoli. The cannoli were everything. I’m still dreaming about them.
Tiffany was also on hand for the event. I mentioned to a guest that the rows upon rows of luxury cars was a man’s paradise while the Tiffany table with rows upon rows of beautiful blue boxes was the woman’s dream section.
Tiffany offered a very fun approach to the charity event. People were encouraged to make a donation for a key. The first 100 people who donated received a Tiffany box with a unique gift.
At the end of the event those who purchased keys were able to try them in this little box here.

If your key opened the box (there were 5 winners) then you had your choice of one of the amazing pieces in the bottom left small square below. Stunning
Grey Goose introduced the VX which is a vodka infused with cognac. It’s set to launch this October and is very tasty if I do say so myself. I loved these two amazing people by the way…so much fun.
There was also a silent auction with everything from paintings to Yankee Stadium Tours to designer bags.
The live auction included this piece by Spanish-American artist Domingo Zapata. He is set to begin commemorative work for the lobby of One World Trade Center in Manhattan. As an aside, he’s also a songwriter and co-wrote with Michael Jackson. This is the piece Zapata donated for auction. It was valued at over $25K.
There were also celebrities on the grounds, of course. Jonathan Cheban who many know from Keeping Up With The Kardashians was there laid back and enjoying the beautiful day like everyone else. Cheban is also the founder of TheDishh.com. I did not know that. Love that site.
He totally posed for me. So cool. Everyone was amazingly cool.

Some of the cast from Real Housewives of New Jersey came out with their children.
Juwanna Kiddwas there looking lovely as ever and interviewing everyone who walked the red carpet.
There was even a Donald Trump sighting as he rolled up as only he could to the red carpet, in a gold cart.
He was actually in the middle of a game and in these pictures he shouts out to Eric, “Hey Eric, How’re you doing? You okay?’, before he sped off to continue his game.
I have so many pictures of cars. I’m trying to find the best way to add them. I may just upload them to a carousel and link it here because I want to share them with you.
I wanted to include this one with the owner because I asked him if I could take a photo to which he replied, ‘Of my car, sure!’.
Me: ‘Well, I’d like to take a picture with you next to it since I only have a few with the owners’.
Him: ‘Of course you can, but, I’m nobody. Just a man with a check’
See in order to display your car; you had to make an entrance fee donation.
I told him, ‘Well, you are somebody then because that is the spirit of today’s event, to give and to help and your donation will help greatly so, you are somebody to many’.
He said, ‘Well, when you look at it that way, you’re right’.
And that was indeed the spirit of the event to have fun, enjoy the weather, meet and greet people that will ultimately be a great benefit to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
Special thanks to Bianca at TheHipEvent.com for the invitation and to the Eric Trump Foundation and HudsonMod for putting on a great event for the kids!
