Celebrities such as Molly Sims, Dancing With the Stars host Samantha Harris, and The Bachelorette couple Ryan and Trista Sutter joined JCPenney and Celebuzz in celebrating this  singular joy at West Hollywood’s Sunset Tower Hotel on Tuesday at the Joy of Giving event, which benefited the Friends of El Faro organization.

For those who were unable to attend, check out the video below and our photo gallery of the event here. We hope they’ll fill your heart with the Joy of Giving, if it wasn’t already.

Las Vegas‘ Molly Sims, Dancing With the Stars‘ Samantha Harris (with husband Michael and daughter Josselyn in tow), Bachelorette couple Trista and Ryan Sutter (who brought along their adorable baby daughter Blakesley Grace), and Make It Or Break It‘s Candace Cameron Bure were among the notables who joined us to ring in the holiday cheer.

But the evening, which was also sponsored by Warner Home Video’s Four Christmases, was about more than music, merriment, good food and drink (including wine from Four Vines Winery, desserts from Nothing Bundt Cakes, and Ojai gourmet Olive Oils) and making last-minute gift requests to Santa; the Joy of Giving event was in support of the Friends of El Faro organization, which provides crucial assistance to the children of Tijuana Casa Hogar Sion orphanage. (Sims serves as a spokesperson for the organization.)

Check out the video below, in which Sims and Harris discuss the Friends of El Faro organization (which last night’s event benefited, and for which Sims serves as spokesperson), and Ryan reveals what we can all learn from the simple, nonmaterialistic perspective of children.
