This year, roughly 1,300 guests attended the annual Leukemia Ball, one of Washington’s premier black-tie events, held March 29 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center. This year’s gala, the 38th annual, raised approximately $2 million. Over the years, the ball has raised more than $74 million for blood-related cancer research, making it one of D.C.’s largest nonpolitical fundraising events.
