Atlanta’s Mayor’s Masked Ball is a premier fundraising and social event that is overseen by the United Negro College Foundation (UNCF). The event was established by former Mayor Andrew Young and Billye Aaron and has been a continual source of financial support for deserving students in need of a scholarship. Through this partnership effort, UNCF raised $2M in 2022, $4M December 2023, and over $4.1 million December 2024.
