Over 500 Washingtonians came together Friday evening to celebrate Fair Chance at the 5th Annual Butterfly Bash. Honorary Chair, Katharine Weymouth (WaPo Publisher) joined Founder, Amanda Marshall, and Co-Chairs Julie Maner and Megan Rupp at the Mellon Auditorium to positively impact the lives of over 54,000 children in DC’s greatest communities of need.
“When I started Fair Chance in 2002, my vision was to provide dynamic and passionate nonprofit leaders with critical business skills so they could not only help more children, but be around for years to come to support the families who were counting on them the most. And, it has worked!” Marshall beamed.
The 2011 Butterfly Bash smashed previous years’ fundraising records, bringing in $200,000 including more than $22,000 raised in a live auction at the event.
