The concept for the Capital City Ball was created in September 2007 by a group of DC area professionals who saw an opportunity to create an annual black tie party for the weekend before Thanksgiving to raise money for charity. This year’s charitable cause was to raise awareness and money to combat human trafficking and modern day slavery. Proceeds raised form the Capital City Ball and their silent auction went to Courtney’s House, FAIR Fund, and Polaris Project nonprofit organizations aimed at stopping human trafficking.
