The White Cross Ball of New York carried to the United States the 35-year tradition of the White Knights Ball in London as well as the Order of Malta balls of various other cities (Edinburgh, Stockholm, Warsaw, Madrid, Paris, Bern, and Milan) and the Order of Malta International Games in St. Moritz. These events are held to raise funds to continue the Order’s 900 years of local and global work of assisting the sick, the poor, and the suffering in over 120 countries.
