The Orphaned Starfish Foundation (OSF) celebrates 11 years with a night of entertainment at Hard Rock Cafe Hollywood Blvd to benefit orphanages across Latin America and Ethiopia with technology training and tools to break the cycle of poverty and abuse, and enable them to become self-sustaining adults when they leave the orphanage at age 18. This “Back to School” function will be hosted by Judy Reyes (“Scrubs”) and guests will be able to enjoy musical acts by MK & The Gentleman and Lucy Walsh, win premium raffle prizes and mingle with special guests including Ryan Cartwright (“Alphas”/”Bones”), Tony O (“The Ellen DeGeneres Show”) and Justine Pasek (Miss Universe 2012), Renee Olstead (“The Secret Life of an American Teenager”), Michael Ornstein (“Sons of Anarchy”), Jeff Russo (guitarist from Tonic), Angela Sun ("American Ninja Warrior" comentator), Ana Ortiz ("Ugly Betty"), James Manos ("The Soprano"), Marlene Forte ("Dallas") and more. 

In addition to raffle tickets, guests will have the opportunity to sponosr a child. Donations will go towards establishing a whole educational center, equipping every orphanage with an OSF computer center, provide tools such as Rosetta Stone, computers, internet, basic word processing programs and a full-time teacher for life.
