The Mid-South chapter of the American Red Cross is thrilled to announce that the 2026 Red Boa Bash, presented by Glo Medical Aesthetics, raised over $80,000 to support our mission of preventing and alleviating human suffering. Held on March 21, 2026, at The Guest House at Graceland, this unforgettable evening brought together more than 200 guests for a night of glamour, generosity and giving back.
Guests arrived in style, donning their finest red attire and feathered boas, ready to enjoy an evening filled with live music by Black Cream and spirited bidding during our silent and live auctions, encouraged by Lance Walker.
