Bala Gala

Bala Gala 2025
“Once upon a bala gala”
Saturday, May 3, 2025
7PM-11PM
Bala House Montessori

Join us on Saturday, May 3rd for an enchanting evening filled with music,  friendship, fun and fundraising.  During this year’s “Once Upon a Bala Gala” event, fairy tales come to life and dreams become reality. Let your imagination run wild as you mingle with fellow supporters, bid on fabulous auction items, and indulge in delicious fare fit for royalty. Together, we can create our own happily ever after for Bala House and make a positive impact on our community. So don your tiaras and tuxedos, and join us from 7PM-11PM for a night to remember. It’s sure to be a storybook evening you won’t want to miss!

The funds raised at this year’s event will go toward revitalizing our outdoor space, transforming it into a more engaging and enriching environment for our children. We plan to incorporate natural materials and thoughtfully designed wooden structures that will inspire imaginative play, encourage physical activity and foster a deeper connection with nature.

Please consider attending the Gala, donating goods or services to the event, advertising in our auction catalog, or purchasing a sponsorship. Your support not only helps with our fundraising efforts but builds brand recognition and loyalty among the nearly 120 families and friends who will attend the Bala Gala.  All donations are tax-deductible.
