We Raised More Than $1.2 Million While Having a Ball
In 2023, the community and industry leaders traded in tuxedos and glittering gowns for resort attire to raise more than $1.2 million for Phoenix Children’s most pressing needs during the 29th annual Beach Ball event. This year’s event was held on Saturday, February 25, 2023, at Arizona Biltmore’s Spire Bar and Lawn with a cocktail party format.
Attendees enjoyed a “beachside” immersive experience with hors d’oeuvres and signature cotton candy cocktails before closing the evening on the dance floor grooving to the sounds of local band, Yacht Rock Revue.
All proceeds from Beach Ball go to the Hope Fund at Phoenix Children’s, which contributes to state-of-the-art technology and equipment, innovative clinical programs and family-centered care.
