Flagstar’s The Jingle Ball, A Season of Giving Gala, presented by Emily & Henry Ford III took place on Saturday, November 19th at The Townsend Hotel in Birmingham. Over 200 guests joined Lighthouse to help kick off the holiday season, while raising funds for the life-changing programs we offer. This event replaced Dancing with the Stars after 13 successful years.
The event was a winter wonderland, featuring live music from Monica Notaro, a hot cocoa bar, gingerbread house displays, winter-themed cupcakes, a silent auction, photo booth, dinner, and dancing. The event was hosted by Taryn Asher and Jay Towers. We sincerely hope everyone had a great time at The Jingle Ball!
In total, the event raised $293,474 to support our emergency shelter, food distribution programs, housing assistance, stability services, and so much more. It was our biggest event ever! We want to sincerely thank every sponsor, donor, guest, vendor, and volunteer who helped make The Jingle Ball a success this year.
