  • Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill, NC (1888PressRelease) August 19, 2011 - Competition for corporate dollars in the Triangle continues to be fierce as charities look for ways to increase revenue for a wide range of worthy causes. While donations to some of the larger charities funnel into a national fund, Hospice of Wake County donations remain in the five-county service area, ensuring that local residents are able to live the remainder of their lives to the fullest. Celebrate life by becoming a corporate sponsor for the 10th anniversary Big Bad Ball, while giving peace and comfort to some of the most vulnerable members of the community and their families. Surrounded by the penthouse view of Raleigh's skyline, the Capital City Club's Young Executives will once again host the party of the year as the annual black tie gala takes center stage on October 1 from 7p.m. - 1a.m. at the Capital City Club.

    There are four sponsorship levels available - Bronze ($1,000), Silver ($2,500), Gold ($5,000) and Platinum ($10,000 and up). All sponsorship levels receive tickets to the event; logo on the photo booth backdrop; and special listing as a donor on www.bigbadball.com, Facebook and Twitter. All sponsors are invited to the VIP Sponsor Reception and valet parking is provided for each group member.

    Silver and Gold level sponsors also receive a half-page ad in the Big Bad Ball virtual program, shown on large screen TV's throughout the Ball, while Platinum sponsors receive a full-page.

    In addition to all the benefits mentioned above, Platinum level sponsors receive a one night stay at a downtown Raleigh hotel the night of the Ball for each couple in their group.

    Tickets for the Big Bad Ball can also be purchased individually for $100 each before August 31 and include a free raffle ticket - a $50 savings. After August 31, tickets increase to $125. Tickets for the $10,000 raffle are $25 each or five for $100.
