Last fall, the 2020 Heart Ball officially kicked off at a pre-party at the home of John and Kerry Mongelluzzo in Indian Hill. The Mongelluzzos are past Heart Ball chairs and John is the current board chair of the Greater Cincinnati American Heart Association. Nearly 100 guests attended the party to gear up for the 27th annual Heart Ball, the American Heart Association’s annual black-tie gala celebrating the year-round lifesaving work of the association. The Heart Ball presented by TriHealth and St. Elizabeth Healthcare will take place on Saturday, February 22 at the Duke Energy Convention Center.

Last year’s Heart Ball raised nearly $1,800,000 and drew a crowd of 1,100 attendees. Funds raised from the event are used to fund the American Heart Association’s lifesaving research and year-round efforts to make Greater Cincinnati a healthier place to live, work and play. Extending long after the Heart Ball, the AHA works in our community through grassroots programs such as Recess in the Stadium and Fit 4 Life Bootcamp, which were designed to fight our childhood obesity crisis and teach heart healthy lifestyles to our youth.
The Heart Ball evening includes live and silent auctions, elegant gourmet dinner, live entertainment and ends with dancing at a Young Professionals’ After Party. For more information about the Heart Ball, contact Pam Schramm at the American Heart Association, 513-699-4214 or pam.schramm@heart.org.
