The Hope for Depression Research Foundation’s 10th anniversary donors' dinner was hosted by Audrey Gruss in Palm Beach on Saturday, March 12, in The Gold Room at the Breakers Hotel. Gruss is the Founder and Chairman of HDRF and a long-time Hamptons resident. Co-Chairs were Scott Snyder, William Flaherty and Susan Lloyd. The evening’s program featured keynote speaker David Payne, the New York Times notable author who read from his recent best seller Barefoot to Avalon.
Gruss created the organization in 2006 in memory of her mother Hope, who struggled with clinical depression. The mission of HDRF is to fund cutting-edge, neuroscience research into the origins, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of depression and related mood disorders – bipolar disorder, postpartum depression, post-traumatic stress syndrome, anxiety disorder and suicide.
