The Hope and Help Center will host the 15th annual Headdress Ball Saturday at the Royal Pacific Resort at Universal Orlando.

"The Headdress" has become the most anticipated dining and entertainment event in Central Florida, voted by Orlando Leisure Magazine as the top charity event not to be missed." Packed with glitz, parties, entertainment and gourmet food, the organization’s signature fundraiser has raised over 1.7 million dollars to help children, women and men infected with HIV/AIDS.

This year highlights the return of the Headdress competition where community businesses participate in a friendly contest of creating distinctive head pieces judged by a panel of celebrities who will caste their vote for the winners.

Celebrity judges consist of: Aaron Carter, popular pop idol and brother of Backstreet Boy, Nick Carter; Juli Ashton, host of Playboy TV's No. 1 show, “Night Calls”; Amazing Race reality star, Reichen Lehmkuhl; NFL record holder, multiple Super Bowl player and former Buffalo Bills Player, Thurman Thomas; recently drafted Orlando Magic Player, Cuttino Mobley ; Jackie London, TV anchor from Local 6, WKMG; Steven Cooper, Problem Solver Reporter from Local 6, WKMG, and author of “Saving Valencia” and “With You in Spirit”.

More than 1,200 people are expected to attend this year's event.

Hope and Help's mission is to provide information, community referrals, and resources for people with HIV or AIDS, and serve as a source of education and outreach to the affected community.

Ticket prices begin at $175.00.

To purchase tickets for the event or for further information on the Hope and Help Center, contact Maggie King at (407) 645-2577, ext. 112.
