NEW YORK – Actress, producer, and former talk show host Ricki Lake has joined forces with Babeland to host "Women Come First: An Evening to Benefit to the New Space for Women's Health" at the SoHo Babeland location later this month.
Set to take place Nov. 18 from 7 to 10 p.m., the Babeland-hosted and Urban Decay Cosmetics-sponsored charity furthers the establishment of a center for birth and wellness in New York City by 2010.
At the New Space for Women's Health, midwives, mental health professionals, and family educators will provide over 20,000 women and families each year with prenatal and postpartum care, childbirth education, gynecological services, social work, and psychological care.
Lake, a New Space board member, will help raise funds for New York City's only independent women's birth and health center. Other guests scheduled to appear include Helen Hunt, Erica Reid, and Todd Oldham. The event will be held at 43 Mercer Street (at Grand Street) in New York.
