Chocolate Fantasy Ball 2019 was a remarkable evening that broke all records!
Those who attended the gala experienced thousands of decadent chocolate creations and gourmet treats prepared exclusively for the special evening. Upon arrival, they tasted the sinfully delicious signature chocolate martinis and ate desserts first! The evening included an elegant seated dinner, fabulous silent and live auctions, and concluded with dancing to the live beat of “Boom! Kinetic.”

Over 700 guests attended the event on Saturday, February 9. Thanks to attendees, sponsors, auction donors, chocolate donors and volunteers, the gala raised $589,760 to help fund Ronald McDonald House Charities of Arkansas. It's the largest source of funds for Ronald McDonald House. Without it, the House would not be able to serve families in need.

Erin and John Carter

Erin and John Carter were the chairs of the 2019 Chocolate Fantasy Ball. They know first-hand how families need the Ronald McDonald House. When their son was born with a heart defect and needed immediate, open-heart surgery, they met many other families experiencing similar terrifying situations - who were staying with us at the House.  Both Erin and John were greatly impacted by what the House did for these families, as well as the comfort and respite families received at RMHCA. Because the Carters understand the need for the Ronald McDonald House, they have been amazing, generous supporters ever since.

Thanks to Little Rock Soirée for the great story. Click the link below to read more about the Carters.
