This social event, benefiting the American Cancer Society in Northwest LA, is scheduled for Saturday, August 22 nd 2015. This western themed gala will feature a delicious dinner, including live music, dancing, party photos, as well as silent and live auctions. You do not want to miss a part of this incredible evening! Last year s Baron s Ball raised over $47,000 and we anticipate an even bigger and better event this year. The money and awareness raised for the local American Cancer Society programs through this event is what makes this a party with an amazing purpose!

In addition to local services provided, Louisiana currently has 2 ACS funded research grants, including 1 grant inside LSU- Health Science Center in Shreveport totaling over $1 million! We are pleased to invite you to be among the elite group of sponsors which are available at a variety of levels. The Baron s Ball Committee looks forward to your participation this year!
