A celebration of Igniting Passion. Our evening celebrates: our work and mission; our donors and volunteers; and — most importantly — the lives saved and improved because of everyone’s effort. The 2013 Catawba County 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 nearly $180,000 allowing us to assist the AHA in  funding over $123 millon of research and programs across the country and in your community.
