Shiver me timbers! It’s almost time for the Center for Family Services’ fourth annual Princess & Pirates Ball taking place Sunday, Nov. 22 from 3 to 6 p.m. at the International Polo Club Palm Beach in Wellington. Young pirates and enchanting princesses are invited to enter a kingdom of fun that includes cocktails and mocktails, dinner by the bite, a bounce house, a DJ, a beauty bar and more.
“We are excited to once again host the Princess & Pirates Ball with an incredible group of individuals,” said Dr. Ted Greer, CEO of the Center for Family Services. “This event is a great way to get children involved in philanthropy at an early age. We are grateful to all who help us bring our programs to more than 15,000 children and adults each year, especially those through our Pat Reeves Village Homeless Shelter.”
The annual children’s ball is the signature event of the Center for Family Services’ Kids Helping Kids Club, which aims to increase awareness of philanthropy among youth while making a difference in the lives of other children. Proceeds will be used to support the Pat Reeves Village shelter, the only 24-hour emergency shelter in Palm Beach County serving families. The shelter also provides life-changing services to families with children who are either homeless or at risk for homelessness.
Chairs of the event are Hampton Beebe, Nellie Miller and Harrison Fisher with Jake Apple, Ava Murray and Liana Stoll serving as honorary junior chairs. Abigail Beebe, Frances Fisher and Anna Miller will serve as pirate officers, while Danielle, Ali and Lesly Moore will serve as the honorary family. Founding chairs of the event are Amie, Jack, Jack and Shay Swan. Tickets for the event are $150 per adult and $95 per child and are still available. The title sponsor is Publix Super Markets Charities.
