The Jingle Bell Ball is held on the 2nd Friday of December. Our goal is to raise money through sponsorships, ticket sales, donations and the silent auction. The money then goes to the United Family Services' Shelter for Battered Women in Charlotte.
If you would like to become a sponsor or volunteer or donate items for the silent auction, please click on the SPONSORS link to the left.
Note: Looking to sell or buy a home in Charlotte? Use Lynn Johnson with Savvy + Co. Real Estate and she will donate $250 in your name to the Jingle Bell Ball.
THANK YOU to everyone who has supported us in the past and will support us in the future!

Without them, we would not have been able to raise over $1,000.00 for the Shelter for Battered Women. The food was great and all who were able to make it had a good time. Portia BellamyChairperson

Blues, Brews and BBQ - Thank You!
September 15th, 2008Hi All,
Myra had us fully staffed for the Blues, Brews and BBQ festival. We made over $400 in tips! Not bad for 3 shifts and the heat was not nearly as brutal as TOC! Thanks to Myra and all who helped out!

Thanks Again To The Volunteers
June 25th, 2008
Thank you for volunteering recently at uptown’s Taste of Charlotte. The weather was brutally hot, so your generous help was so very much appreciated.
As you know the money we raise will help offset expenses of The Jingle Bell Ball whose proceeds benefit The Battered Women’s Shelter. The more money we can raise throughout the year through events such as TOC allows us to donate more money to the shelter each year.
Thank you again!

Thank You - Taste of Charlotte Volunteers
June 24th, 2008From Portia to all the volunteers:
Hi ya’ll! You guys did a great job pulling all of this together AND managing to have it staffed in this awful heat. I don’t know about you two, but I feel like I lost a few pounds of water weight over the weekend! Thanks to those of you who worked the TOC over the weekend. It was a scorcher, but your efforts are truly appreciated!
