Annual Heart Ball champions the 'cause of children'

THE 50th Annual Heart Ball, in aid of The Sir Victor Sassoon (Bahamas) Heart Foundation, took place on Saturday under the theme ‘Celebrating the Golden Anniversary of a vision….Championing the Cause of Children.’

Held at Melia Nassau Beach it was an evening of fine foods, elegance, laughter, dancing, prizes, and surprises.

The Annual Heart Ball is the major fundraiser to aid The Sir Victor Sassoon (Bahamas) Heart Foundation.

The proceeds help the Heart Foundation to repair the hearts of children who cannot ordinarily afford heart care.

Heart care is not cheap.

One surgery, unless negotiated can cost over $100,000.

In the words of the Heart Ball Committee’s Public Relations Officer, Ingrid Sears: “The Heart Ball is truly grateful to all who have helped to make this year’s event a great success.

“Without our sponsors, our donors and the support of the public, we would not be able to assist The Heart Foundation.

“We would not be able to save children’s live. The ability to save one life is a step to save our future. Thank you.

“The 2013/2014 Heart Ball Committee is grateful that we are able to continue a work that started with a vision to save lives. We encourage the public to continue to help us as we move forward.”
