We are overwhelmed and grateful for the support of The Children’s Ball. Due to the amazing response, we have nearly reached capacity and only the very highest levels of sponsorship opportunities are available at this time. Our sponsorship levels at $25,000 and below are currently offering a wait list as noted, should additional space become available. If you are interested in attending The Children’s Ball, the indicated sponsorships at $50,000 and higher are still available.
If you wish to be placed on the waitlist for the indicated levels below, please email us directly with that request at specialevents@childrensnational.org. Our Special Events team will be in touch in the coming weeks, and no later than March 29, to share updates and details should we be able to accommodate additional guests.
Finally, if you are unable to join us for The Children’s Ball, we hope you will consider other ways to support the hospital, our patients, and families. You may still make a fully tax-deductible donation to The Children’s Ball or support our other signature events such as our annual White Hat Gala and Race for Every Child.
