May 8, 2010 – Chicago magazine and the Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Disorders Association, Inc. teamed up in support of the 2010 Chicago Rita Hayworth Gala at the Fairmont Chicago Millennium Park. Princess Yasmin Aga Khan held the first Rita Hayworth Gala in 1985 to honor her mother, actress Rita Hayworth, who died as a result of Alzheimer’s disease. Since then, the annual gala has grown into a premier social event that has raised more than $18 million to support the Alzheimer’s Association.
