Halloween 'Hell House'

 

'A Cinderella Ball' is an annual gala for disabled middle and high school students in the greater Washington, DC area. The House hosts 'A Cinderella Ball' because disabled students often are overlooked or unable to participate in social events at their schools, especially a prom.

'A Cinderella Ball' is a formal evening gala. Girls receive a free gown, accessories and shoes donated after proms, by local individuals and businesses. The boys receive a donated handkerchief, socks, and a silk tie from a high-end store.

The night of the Ball, student guests enter the building on a red carpet beneath a Marine sword arch. They are escorted to dinner tables by students enrolled in The House’s before/after school program. They also sit among our special guests to help with any needs during the meal and to make our guests feel welcome.

You can become an official sponsor of The House, Inc.'s Fifth Annual 'A Cinderella Ball' by providing a specific level of support with your tax-deductible, charitable contribution.
