You're invited to a Mythical Ball

The Mythical Ball is the fanciest event that never happens! That's right — there's no dress code, no dancing, no hors d'oeuvres... but there is an incredible opportunity to support the National Urea Cycle Disorders Foundation and make a real difference.

This one-of-a-kind fundraiser invites you to "not attend" a ball while making a meaningful contribution. It's the perfect chance to get involved, have fun, and support a cause you care about — without the need to buy a ticket, rent a tux, or dust off your ballroom shoes!

Here's How It Works:

• Donate to "Not Attend": Instead of spending money on an expensive ticket to a formal event, donate to our cause and be part of the Mythical Ball magic. Your donation helps us continue our mission to support those with urea cycle disorders while continuing research to end urea cycle disorders.
• Invite your family and friends. Fill out the form below and let us know how many invitations you would like to send to friends and family, and whether you will send them or if you want us to do the heavy lifting.
• Celebrate Online and have FUN with us during UCD Awareness Month in April! You can:
  • Share our social media posts about this event (or download graphics here to make your own posts)
  • Create a fundraising page of your own, and
  • Post your pictures if you decide to dress up and have a ball with loved ones at home!
• Enjoy the magic: There’s no venue, no event schedule, no tuxedos or evening gowns — just the satisfaction of knowing you're supporting a great cause without leaving home.

Why "Not Attend" the Ball?

• No Commitments: Forget scheduling a fancy night out. With the Mythical Ball, all you need to do is donate!
• No Need for Fancy Clothes: You don’t need to worry about what to wear or how to get there.
• A Fun Way to Give Back: It's a lighthearted and stress-free way to support a meaningful cause.
• A New Tradition: Who says a fundraiser has to be boring? Let’s make supporting a cause fun and mythical!
