Tippy Wingtips & Steal Hawker where the hosts of the event and received the couples as they entered the Black Rose Ballroom. Many of the BFA supporters from last year returned for this years opening event, but also there were new supporters especially from Team photoLIFE.
During the first hour, BFA founder Magi McBride announced the early tally of donations by guests, "L$63,561 Y'ALL ARE SO TOTALLY AWESOME". And that was a fabulous amount but by the end of the evening, Magi had an even more awesome report, "The ball tonight did: $L107,500."
Here are a few photos from last night's ball:
Early in the evening the attendence was already outstanding.
Nearly forty supporters arrived.
As the evening rolled in, DJ Ange while setting the mood for the evening with her music, she gave guests insights into the disorder that is called autism.
At the end of the evening, as the guests were leaving, Magi announced the great news about the total donations from the Ball, L$107,500.
Autism awareness and especially support for families with autistic children is the goal of the Blues for Autism campaign. In the weeks preceding the ball, there is always a concern about how things will go once the drive begins. However, with the generous mood of the BFA supporters last night it was a reassuring beginning. Great thanks go to all of the supporters.
