We are thrilled to have you be a part of this timeless Nashville tradition of celebrating accomplished and community-minded young women. Your hometown of Nashville is growing and thriving, but there are many people whose needs are not being met. By participating in the Bal d’Hiver, you are helping raise needed funds and awareness of three important charities: CASA (Count Appointed Special Advocates), Family and Children’s Service and the Kappa Alpha Theta Foundation.
The 2019 Bal d’Hiver takes place on Friday, November 29, 2019 at the Loews Vanderbilt Hotel. The evening includes the presentation of the young women, their escorts, and their fathers, followed by a wonderful dinner and dancing.
We hope you enjoy reconnecting with old friends, sharing your plans for the future, and helping us to support these charities. We look forward to honoring these remarkable young women as members of the 2019 Bal d’Hiver Court.
Sincerely,
Susana Huddleston and Cathy Krumm

Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA)
CASA’s mission is to advocate for hope, healing, and permanency for abused and neglected children in juvenile court by providing trained volunteer advocates in the Nashville area.
Since 1984, The Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) program has served Nashville by speaking for abused and neglected children caught in the court system and helping them find safe and permanent homes.
Family and Children’s Service
Family & Children’s Service (FCS) serves all people in crisis and transition by meeting them where they are, understanding their needs, and connecting them to the resources they need. FCS often ‘fills in the gaps’ in social services, creating a safety net to ensure that all children and families can be safe and healthy. Each year they provide services to more than 60,000 Tennesseans.
Kappa Alpha Theta Foundation
The Kappa Alpha Theta Foundation is dedicated to securing and managing resources for educational, leadership, and philanthropic programs of the Fraternity and for the scholastic, professional, and service pursuits of its members to help them reach their fullest potential and make a difference in the world. The Foundation puts our Fraternity’s ideals into action.
