<p id=”par-2_52″>Jhpiego was founded in 1973 as the Johns Hopkins Program for International Education in Gynecology and Obstetrics. After decades of fostering lifesaving health services, the international nonprofit still seeks to help others, but with a new name, Jhpiego. The organization’s eighth annual gala celebrated its nonprofit initiatives and highlighted stars like <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/ciara-fell-russell-wilson-used-smooth-pickup-line.html/”>Ciara</a>.</p>

<p id=”par-3_53″><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/kelly-rowland-was-once-engaged-to-an-nfl-star.html/”>Kelly Rowland</a> spoke to the audience about Ciara’s work with several nonprofits, including the Why Not You Foundation. Ciara’s husband, NFL player Russell Wilson, founded Why Not You in 2014 to empower today’s youth through education, children’s health, and fighting poverty. As Rowland explained during her speech, the nonprofit aligns beautifully with Jhpiego.</p>

<p id=”par-7_83″>Rowland went blonde for the evening affair. Celebrity hairstylist Jared Henderson styled Kelly’s platinum bob wig. The “I’m Dat Chick” singer has rocked her blonde locks since around April 21, when she posted a fun pic of the new do on <a href=”https://www.instagram.com/p/C6CLkMIP-KT/?img_index=1″ target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Instagram</a>. Rowland captioned the photo, “So blondes have more fun? Eh? We’ll see……” Celebrity makeup artist Leah Darcy gave Rowland a shimmering smokey eye and beauty mark on her left cheek.
