• Heroes for Hope gala. Pierre Hotel, 2. E. 61st St., nr. Fifth Ave. The event benefits the Jorge Posada Foundation for craniosynostosis. Spike Lee and Derek Jeter will be there. And yet again, A-Rod fails to come through in the clutch for the Jorge Posada Foundation. Boooooooo!
• Celebrity Waiters for Project ALS. Sapa, 43 W. 24th St., nr. Sixth Ave., 6 p.m. Among your servers for the evening: Rachel Dratch, Ted Allen, Bryant Gumbel, Julianna Margulies, Christopher Meloni, Rob Riggle, and more. These events are always endearing, but the potential for insider Sopranos watercooler chat with a huge contingent of New York actors makes us even more jealous that we won’t be savoring Bryant Gumbel–delivered Vietnamese rolls tonight.
