Despite 2019 Crystal Charity Ball Chair Pat McEvoy being in overdrive to raise funds for this year’s children’s nonprofits, the Crystal Charity 2018 committee officially closed the books on its year of fundraising on Wednesday, March 27. It was the check presentation of $6,501,105 at Hall Arts Residence’s showroom.
While the eight Dallas County children’s nonprofits gleefully accepted their six- and seven-figure checks (After-School All-Stars Dallas – $592,140, Booker T. Washington High School for The Performing and Visual Arts – $766,190, Boys and Girls Club of Greater Dallas – $600,591, Buckner Children and Family Services – $1,125,435, Friends of the Dallas Public Library – $752,455, Mosaic Family Services – $666,612, Nexus Recovery Center – $747,681 and Ronald McDonald House of Dallas – $1,250,000), 2018 CCB Chair Claire Emanuelson and her committee were both sad to see an end of their year-long project and more-than pleased that they had met their goal for the children of Dallas.
