The 10th Annual Night of a Thousand Stars in Omaha over the weekend raised an estimated $250,000 for AIDS prevention efforts. Sponsored by the Nebraska AIDS Project, 80 dinner parties were held throughout Omaha for the event, where hosts charged guests for attending and then donated the proceeds to NAP, said Tim Sullivan, the group's executive director. After the dinners, participants gathered at Regency Court for desserts and cocktails. Sullivan said about 3,500 people attended. Money raised from the event will go toward educational programs and direct services for clients and their families coping with AIDS in Nebraska and southwest Iowa, Sullivan said.
