Is Love a Game?

Is Love a Game? — In 2009, Americans gave over 300 billion dollars to charitable causes — and California was one of the top five states when it came to giving. On Red Carpet Bay Area, we met a Northern California couple who turn fundraising into unforgettable Red Carpet moments, all for a good cause.  Jillian Manus and Alan Salzman opened their Atherton home to more than 300 glamorous and generous guests for a Valentine’s Day gala and benefit for Stanford Cancer Center.  Watch the party from the front-row on Red Carpet Bay Area:
