2018 Des Moines Heart Ball

The Heart Ball is a celebration…of our work and mission; our donors and volunteers; and — most importantly — the lives saved and improved because of everyone’s effort. It is a night to honor those milestones reached during the year, and to raise funds to ensure that we continue to keep our promise to those who are counting on us to ensure longer, stronger lives for everyone.  The Heart Ball promises to be an engaging evening of fun and passion bringing community and philanthropic leaders together. 

Last year, our Heart Ball campaign raised just over $71 million nation-wide - allowing us to fund life-saving research and prevention programs in our community and across the country.
