Fleur de Lis 2017

The 59th annual Fleur de Lis Charity Ball to benefit SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital was celebrated Dec. 29 at The Hyatt Regency St. Louis at The Arch. Twenty-seven young women were presented to the Most Rev. Mark S. Rivituso, auxiliary bishop of St. Louis, before an admiring audience of family and friends. Mrs. Richard J. Dames Jr. served as ball chairman, with assistance from Fleur de Lis president Mrs. Robert J. Ciapciak. To date, the organization has contributed a total of $2,907,000 to SSM Health Cardinal Glennon. Last year, the hospital provided more than $6 million in free care to children from St. Louis and the surrounding bi-state area.
