What: Erlanger’s second Believe Bash was held recently at Wilson Air Hangar. The 1920s-themed black-tie gala included dinner, dancing and a live auction to raise funds for the new Children’s Hospital Outpatient Center.

Benefits: The gala raised more than $700,000 to benefit the Believe Campaign. Phase one of the new Children’s Hospital at Erlanger consists of a 90,000-square-foot outpatient center. The new facility is scheduled to open in December.
