The annual White Cross Ball of New York City will take place tomorrow, November 8th, 2024. This prestigious event raises funds for three of the Order of Malta’s global humanitarian efforts: the Holy Family Hospital of Bethlehem, Malteser International, and Malta Camp USA.

The Holy Family Hospital of Bethlehem is a charitable maternity and neonatal hospital providing top-tier obstetric and newborn care to those in the Bethlehem region of the West Bank, regardless of their religion, race, or financial situation. Malteser International offers humanitarian relief worldwide, responding to disasters and crises with medical assistance, clean water, and other essential aid. Malta Camp USA is a five-day camp for disabled adults across America, fostering community and providing enriching experiences.

In previous years, the White Cross Ball has also supported the Order of Malta International Summer Camp for Disabled Youth, a program that brings together 200 disabled young people and 300 volunteers from 30 nations each summer in a different European country.

The Ball Committee operates under the Order of Malta American Association, a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Donations are tax-deductible to the fullest extent of the law.
