On Saturday 20 June, La Samanna, A Belmond Hotel, organised a charity gala entitled ‘Dames à Âmes’. The aim of the event was to raise funds for La Maison des Femmes de Saint-Martin. In total, the evening brought together 200 people and raised €40,000. This sum came from the sale of admission tickets, as well as a silent auction featuring 37 exceptional lots. The funds will be donated to the Saint-Martin-based organisation, which supports women who are victims of violence by offering them psychological, legal and professional support. L.G
