Dress up and wear your most elaborate mask for a cause at MASK’s annual MASKer Aide Ball on Oct. 10 at the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess Hotel & Resort.
MASK stands for Mother’s Awareness on School-age Kids, and aims to empower families with the tools and resources they need to improve the lives of their children.
With over 400 guests expected to attend the MASKer Aide Ball this year, it’s one of the Valley’s most important charitable events.
Enjoy an elegant evening of fine dining, music, dancing, silent and live auctions. MASK will honor the recipients of its Engage, Educate and Empower awards (Tagline Awards) to organizations, enterprises and/or community leaders who continuously demonstrate involvement in their communities and are working to make a difference in the lives of families and children.
