It took less than 25 minutes for auctioneer Rachael White Young to raise over US$170,000 at Hanover Charities’ legendary annual fund-raiser, the Sugar Cane Ball, held on Saturday, February 17, 2024 at the cashmere-chic Round Hill Hotel & Villas.

The electrifying exchange was the highlight of the ball’s 2024 staging, which attracted shareholders from around the world, like Sugar Cane Ball faithful, fashion designer Ralph Lauren and his family.
