Advertiser Urban Honolulu Writer
The event runs from 1 to 4 p.m.
All proceeds from the event will benefit the Hawai'i state chapter to meet crisis needs of the community and to perpetuate emergency preparedness education and awareness.
Cost is $250 per person. Sponsor tables cost between $2,500 and $5,000.
"Many people don't realize that the Red Cross is not a government agency. We rely on the generosity of Hawai'i's people to provide critical services to our community," said Coralie Chun Matayoshi, chief executive officer, in a news release.
In addition to tea and desserts, the event will feature a silent auction and a special viewing by Tiffany & Co. and Yves Saint Laurent's collection.
