Guests of the Erlanger Foundation’s 2024 Believe Bash gala will party for a good cause as the annual fundraising event tries to beat last year’s $372,000 raised by sponsors and donors.
Proceeds go to Children’s Hospital at Erlanger — the region’s only children’s hospital (so when we say it’s for a good cause, we mean it).
The glamorous event will sweep guests away with a Parisian-themed backdrop of bistros, art galleries, garden parties, and the sparkle of Parisian lights. Included in the evening is a cocktail reception, gourmet dining, live music + dancing, a live auction, and programming that conveys the importance of supporting local children.
🏥 Making an impact
Erlanger is a nonprofit hospital and depends on community donations to provide:
