Event Details
Since 2007, the Children's Ball has raised more than $46 million to support children and families. Funds raised benefit patients at Children's National Hospital through the Fund for Every Child. This fund enables us to extend the best care to every child and family in need. It animates art and music therapies that help kids be kids during their hospital stay.
