Private equity transactions partner Othon Prounis and his wife Kathy Prounis were the honorees at Lenox Hill Neighborhood House’s Fall Associates Benefit on November 3 in New York. The black tie event, billed as “Celebrate the Neighborhood,” began with cocktails at the Oscar de la Renta boutique on Madison Avenue and concluded with dinner and dancing at the Metropolitan Club. The benefit raised money for vital social programs offered through the Neighborhood House, and honored Othon and Kathy Prounis for their many years of commitment to the Neighborhood House and other civic organizations, including the Museum of the City of New York, the Museum at FIT and the Central Park Conservancy. Othon is a longtime member of Lenox Hill Neighborhood’s Board of Directors and has contributed to the success of its fundraising efforts and the expansion of its donor base. The event was attended by numerous clients and attorneys from the firm.
