Eva Longoria Speech in Global Gift Gala 2019 in Marbella
"One more year, I love arriving in Marbella and feeling at home. Maria runs the city of Marbella all over the world, she was born here, and the idea of this platform to help people started in Maria's heart. We have a big family at Global Gift and we are very happy to be here together with Alina today. This idea of connecting foundations and people between Maria, Alina and myself started almost 10 years ago, so today is a very special day for us to open the Global Gift House to help the children and their families.
