Motherhood isn't just celebrated in May. Hollywood's most influential moms stepped out for a night away from the kids at the 2015 Baby2Baby Gala on Saturday (November 14). The fourth annual gala was held at 3Labs in Culver City, California and packed with a star-studded guest list. This list highlights honoree Kerry Washington, as well as celebrity red carpet looks from Jessica Alba, Gwen Stefani and more.

This year's celebration honored Scandal star and new mother, Kerry Washington, with the Giving Tree Award. The 38-year-old actress welcomed daughter Isabelle Amarachi in April 2014 with husband and former NFL cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha.

The new mother has prided herself in keeping her personal life private, especially in regards to her child, in hopes of Isabelle being recognized for her voice instead of her looks or last name. This was something Washington struggled with growing up, admitting she was insecure about her looks so she developed other ways to stand out.

Aside from joining the long list of celebrity moms in Hollywood, Washington was also acknowledged for her activism and philanthropy. She's a member of several organizations including the Entertainment Industry Foundation which funds over 300 charitable organizations surrounding health, education, and social issues; GLAAD, in which she was awarded the GLAAD Vanguard Award in March 2015; V-Day which brings awareness to violence against women and many more.

"When you become a mom, you enter into this community of mommies and these ladies have become a big part of my life," Washington said to WWD. "And it's the best party of the year so I'm always happy just to come."

A night filled with cocktails and laughter, the guests helped Baby2Baby provide low-income families and nonprofit organizations with children's necessities like diapers and clothing. Washington was surrounded by other supporters of the gala including Reese Witherspoon, Rachel Zoe, Busy Philipps, Jessica Biel, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Harold Perrineau and so many more.
