In 2012 The Committee of the <strong>Royal</strong><br />

<strong>Caledonian</strong> <strong>Ball</strong> were delighted to be<br />

able to support a wide range of very<br />

worthwhile causes. This was only possible<br />

thanks to your generosity and the incredible<br />

donations of prizes that helped raise so<br />

much in the Silent Auction.<br />

The Committee meets in September to<br />

discuss to whom it would like to donate. We<br />

welcome nominations and suggestions, and<br />

would ask that you email<br />

secretary@royalcaledonianball.com if you<br />

would like to tell us about a charity that you<br />

think would benefit from our support. We<br />

support Scottish people in the following<br />

areas: the elderly, children, those with<br />

disabilities, the injured and the homeless.<br />

We always ensure a portion of our funds<br />

raised goes towards charities with a military<br />

connection – a reflection of our long and<br />

proud association with the Armed Forces.<br />
