Storybook Ball Over The Years

The generosity of Storybook Ball supporters has helped raise more than $40 million to establish new programs and facilities such as the Coordinated Care Clinic and the state-of-the-art Francis H. Burr Proton Beam Therapy Center, enhancing our ability to serve children with complex physical and emotional needs. However, like most health care organizations across the country and within Boston, Mass General is not immune to external challenges. In the face of ongoing economic adversity, Mass General Brigham for Children is renewing our commitment to the wide range of existing pediatric programs for which this hospital is renowned.

2024: Corduroy

In 2024, the Storybook Ball took place at the Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport. The 25th anniversary of Storybook Ball featured Complex Care. Complex Care is supported by Pediatric Coordinated, Supportive and Palliative Care programs and services. These multidisciplinary teams treat underlying conditions while enhancing a child’s comfort and well-being, standing shoulder to shoulder with parents to help them navigate care.

2023: Frog & Toad

In 2023, the Storybook Ball took place at the Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport. The evening showcased the incredible work being done in the field of Adolescent Health. The Adolescent and Young Adult Medicine team is committed to supporting the healthy development of adolescents and young adults while promoting healthy habits and preventing disease.

2022: Chicka Chicka Boom Boom

In 2022, the Storybook Ball returned for its first in-person event in two years. The evening showcased the incredible work being done in Newborn Medicine. The team’s state-of-the-art medical and surgical care, in collaboration with obstetrics, helps mothers and babies before, during and after childbirth to heal, grow and thrive.
