Vanessa Selbst's Blinds & Justice Charity Event Raises Over $160K; Negreanu a Star

At the end of September, Vanessa Selbst hosted "Blinds & Justice," a charity event benefitting the work of the Urban Justice Center, which has served New York City’s most vulnerable residents through a combination of direct legal service, systemic advocacy, community education and political organizing for more than 30 years.

It was a cause near and dear to Selbst's heart, and the event, which took place at Current in Chelsea, proved to be a big success with 200 total attendees, of which 135 took part in the charity poker tournament, which raised over $160,000.
