2015 DC Heart Ball

What an amazing turnout this year for the 2015 DC Heart Ball. This premier society gala is an annual event to benefit both the American Heart Association- Greater Washington Region and the American Stroke Association!  

The black-tie event, entitled 'Joie de Vivre' was held Saturday, February 28, 2015 at the exquisite Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Washington, D.C. Vice-Chair of The Clinton Foundation, Chelsea Clinton was the Honorary Speaker for the evening and special awards were presented to some of the nation's best leaders.

Sponsors included AT&T, The Bender Family and Juniper Networks to name a few.

I was thrilled with this year's French Parisian theme, which included romantic music, an Effle Tower and a mock up of the famous Pont des Arts "love locks bridge."  What better way to spend an evening giving back to a worthy cause than in a gorgeous venue such as this one?

Over $1.1 million was raised from the silent and live auctions along with the overwhelming attendance from DC, Maryland and Virginia's most prominent medical and community leaders.
