The Charity: Ball Gala 2011

The Charity: Water Ball was a huge success! The 69th Regiment Armory was packed with fun-loving, donation-giving, party goers from all over. It was truly a great crowd, which translated into a party to remember.

There were wonderful speeches given by Scott Harrison, the Charity: Water founder and Jessica Biel, the evenings host. Tyler Perry also graced the stage as famed special guest auctioneer for the live auction.

There were a variety of unique activities this ball. There were sponsored water walks in the middle of the gala floor. There were also varied stations set up around the room to encourage charitable moments. Also included was an eclectic deejay and awesome eats.

I was stationed at the small donations wall where, the founder himself got the ball rolling by purchasing the first light bulb. The idea was to light up a village with clean water and by the end most of it was. This particular station represented a water project in Cambodia.

The ball was terrific! Great work Charity: Water!
