The event which took place in Geneva on 10th October 2009 was held in support of local charities, the Clair Bois Foundation and Association Paidos, and Children in Need UK.
"We are extremely pleased with the outcome of this event," commented Paul Dodds, deVere and Partner's Managing Partner in Switzerland. "We raised a significant amount for charities that will help improve the lives of children in Switzerland and in the UK. Our partnership with the Geneva appeal for Children in Need was a success and we look forward to working on future events together."
Annie Kennedy, member of the ball organising committee added, "deVere's support was essential to the organisation of the ball. We really valued their support and would like to thank them for contributing to the success of the night." The charity ball, which was one of Geneva appeal for Children in Need's biggest events to date, was attended by just under 100 people and raised close to CHF 14,000 on the night.
