The BISS Ball, held at the W Hotel in Shanghai, was a dazzling affair, combining elegance with purpose. As guests entered the venue, they were greeted by the enchanting ambience that set the tone for a fantastic fundraising evening.
The highlight of the event was undoubtedly the mesmerising performances that captivated the audience throughout the night. From graceful ballet dancers to the rhythmic movements of Brazilian Zouk and soul-stirring acapella renditions, each act added a layer of sophistication and entertainment.
The organisers went above and beyond to ensure that attendees not only enjoyed themselves, but also had the opportunity to contribute to noble causes. With prizes worth RMB3 million up for grabs in the auction and raffle, guests leapt into action. From luxury vacations to exclusive dining experiences, the prizes were as extravagant as they were diverse.
The true measure of the event's success lies in its community impact. Despite the lavish setting and prizes, the focus remained on giving back to those in need. Through the combined efforts of attendees and sponsors, a remarkable RMB186,000 was raised for good causes, reflecting the generosity and compassion of the community.
Beyond the glitz and glamour, the BISS Ball served as a reminder of the power of collective action — all to support Heart To Heart for life-saving children’s heart surgery, and animal shelters across the city.
A huge thank you goes out to the event organisers, Mary Ann Yick and Sarah Gilsenan, and our BISS Lions Events Team, whose dedication and vision made this evening possible. Their tireless efforts ensured that the Ball was not only a resounding success, but also a beacon of hope for those in need.
