It’s gala season which means another record-breaking night at The Breakers for the Boys & Girls Clubs of Palm Beach County’s 43rd Annual Winter Ball. One of the most highly-anticipated events of the season, the black-tie event chaired by Lynne Wheat, with co-chairs Jennifer Fischer, Audrey Gruss, Amy Phelan, and Andrea Wynn, featured dinner, dancing and a live auction which in all raised a total of $14.25 million, including a generous donation of $10 million by Thomas Peterffy and another $1 million from William P. Lauder & Lori Kanter-Tritsch.
Check out the highlights below!
The Winter Ball supports Boys & Girls Clubs of Palm Beach County, which is comprised of 20 Club sites serving more than 13,000 youth ages 6 to 18. The Clubs provide award-winning developmental programs to help youth build skills, self-esteem, and values during non-school hours and summer camp opportunities.
