According to organizers, the Mayor's Masked Ball has raised more than $1.3 million for local students.
"When we think about building homes, building wealth, building prosperity, building our business overall, as corporate America is concerned," said Nina Johnson, the ball's co-chair. "HBCUs are a key component of that success formula."
The 10th annual Mayor's Masked Ball will be Saturday, March 29.
