The Ambassador's
Ball
is a fundraising
gala that is attended by the United Nations Ambassadors from
various countries around the world, as well as other
dignitaries from the New York
and United States.
The Hospitality Committee for the United Nations
Delegations, Inc. (HCUND) is an all-volunteer organization
that has been serving the families of delegates to the
United Nations for 56 years. From their office in the
General Assembly Building, the volunteers provide an array
of services and programs, including English Language
classes, which assist families of the UN diplomats to adjust
to their new life in New York. We are the only organization
of this kind working within the United Nations.
The importance of this organization to the well-being of the
United Nations diplomatic community cannot be
underestimated. The Ambassador's Ball helps to preserve and
support this vital nonprofit organization while, at the same
time, highlighting the work of the United Nations in front
of a prominent New York audience.
Secretary-General
Ban Ki-Moon and Mrs. Ban Soon-taek were honored guests
this
year's Ball .
Other past honorees include Nelson Mandela, Tony Bennett,
former Secretary-General and Mrs. Kofi Annan, Walter
Cronkite, Mrs. Nelson Rockefeller
and Ted Turner, among others.
