Jewel Charity Ball

The Jewel Charity Ball, Fort Worth’s most anticipated charity gala of the year, is a black-tie event honoring our Angel Donors. Each year, the Jewel Charity President and her Ball Committee transform the Amon G. Carter Jr. Exhibits Hall at Fort Worth’s Will Rogers Memorial Center into an elegant ballroom, complete with larger-than-life entertainment, thoughtfully planned menus, an exclusive silent auction and more for guests to enjoy. True to our tradition, the Jewel Charity Official Jeweler presents a selection of jewelry, modeled by debutantes, for guests to admire and purchase.

Be an Angel Donor

Inspired by renowned Australian jeweler Margot McKinney’s exquisite creations, Jewel Charity’s World of Wonder will celebrate the brilliant jewels in our community - our Angel Donors - and the wonder of our combined generosity.

On March 7, 2026, we’ll celebrate the generosity of our community at the 71st Jewel Charity Ball.
