A Vintage Affair

On February 22, 2025, A Vintage Affair returns for its 26th year! This signature fundraising event will take place at the Mellon Auditorium and as in years past, guests will enjoy fine wines and cuisines from around the world, along with robust Live and Silent auctions. Items include: sought-after wines, priceless experiences, fine and exclusive dining, and fabulous get-away trips. All while supporting our local treasure, Children’s National Hospital.

Proceeds from A Vintage Affair will fund the Founders Auxiliary Board’s Annual Grants and Major Gift Programs. These programs provide critical funding directly to Children’s National’s experts which enables them to expand the horizons of pediatric care. Children’s National stands strong, despite the challenges and demands it has faced, and continues to care for our most precious resource – our kids. Now more than ever, the hospital needs our support.

I have had the great honor to work alongside our very talented and dedicated board members, to present the annual A Vintage Affair event, a major fundraising event benefiting Children’s National Hospital. I stand in awe of our board members for their dedication and commitment to the success of A Vintage Affair, which has raised over six million dollars since 2015.
