They say no one gets dressed up anymore….but in Philly, we dress to impress!

Here’s your chance to show off your glamorous side, while supporting the higher education journey of Philadelphia’s future leaders, at the 8th Annual Philadelphia UNCF Mayor’s Masked Ball, on Saturday, March 7, at the Philadelphia Marriott Downtown in Center City.

The formal black-tie and gown gala is the fundraising and social event of the year, organized by the United Negro College Fund (UNCF), in partnership with the Office of the City Representative.

Share the room with Philadelphia’s Mayor Jim Kenney and the many other dignitaries, civic leaders, volunteers, public officials, and alumni, who support UNCF’s mission of investing in America’s future by getting students to and through college.

Many UNCF scholarship recipients go on to become industry leaders, and your support of the 2020 Philadelphia UNCF Mayor’s Masked Ball will help students who attend historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs), such as Spelman University graduate Brianna Walker, achieve their dreams.

All for a great cause, the fun-filled evening will include a Masked Award Reception at 5:30 pm, elegant red carpet photo opportunities, a Parade of Masks, silent and live auctions, dining, dancing and much more. During the program, three accomplished UNCF supporters who have provided hope and opportunity to deserving youth will also be honored.
