Nothing brings out Atlanta’s finest philanthropist like the Arthritis Foundation’s Crystal Ball. This year being the 38th annual Crystal Ball was held on October 19, 2019 at the Ritz-Carlton Atlanta. This year theme was “Midnight in Paris”. Crystal Ball Chair Kelly and Ryan Teague transported us to one of France beloved destinations, a wonderful evening of French culture, dancing, gourmet French food while supporting those who are not able to move so freely with their bodies. At this year’s Crystal Ball, we honored Dr. Jon and Konni Minter for their loyal support of the Arthritis Foundation.
Since its inception the Crystal Ball has raised more $9.8 million arthritis for research and programs that directly support the 1.89 million Georgia’s including our 10,000 children living with arthritis. Funds raised at the Crystal Ball helps the arthritis foundation provide empowering programs such a Camp AcheAway, a weeklong getaway for children affected by arthritis.
The Night theme “Midnight in Paris was brought to life by one Atlanta’s Best Tony Brewer & company. Entertainment from dancers and aerialist kicking off the reception and followed by a formal dinner, and live and silent auction.
