Bob and Lee Woodruff hosted Hamptons Stands for Heroes, which celebrated the work of the Bob Woodruff Foundation on Friday, August 28, at the home of Joan and George Hornig.
Notable attendees included Lee Woodruff, Joan and George Hornig, James Lipton, Jane Hanson, Chris Cuomo, Cristina Cuomo, Gerry and Liz Byrne, Anna Throne-Holst, Adam Sikora, Robbie Browne, Yolanda Garretti, William Kehler, and Mack Woodruff.
All of the proceeds of the night will go to the Bob Woodruff Foundation, which was founded by ABC News Correspondent Bob Woodruff and his wife Lee after Bob was hit by a roadside bomb while covering the war in Iraq in January 2006. The then co-anchor of “World News Tonight” was given access to all of the proper treatment enabling him to fully recover from the traumatic brain injury he received within 13 months. Their experiences inspired them to help make sure our nation’s heroes have access to the resources they deserve, for as long as they need them.
