Air and Space Forces Charity Gala

Every year, a talented and energetic group of Air and Space Force spouses come together to plan the Air and Space Forces Charity Gala to benefit the Air Force Aid Society.

The first event – then called the United States Air Force Ball – was in 2004 thanks to the Air Force Officers’ Spouses’ Club (AFOSC) at Bolling Air Force Base who created a special committee to host a charity ball to benefit Air Force Aid Society. Year after year, Air Force and Space Force spouses bring an extended community of donors and volunteers together to create an unforgettable evening that raises vital funding for Airmen and Guardians in need of help.

Thanks to the efforts of the Air and Space Forces Charity Gala Committee, the annual gala has generated more than $13 million since its inception and has become one of the largest fundraisers for Air Force Aid Society.
