The Event ...
​
Each year Princess Gesine Doria Pamphilj invites a co-host for her annual charity ball. It is the only ball allowed to be held at the Doria Pamphilj Palace and benefits the residents of the Santa Francesca Romana Home for the Aged.
​
In honor of our 15th anniversary of marriage, this year the princess has invited us, John & Ashley Noronha and the Truth & Beauty Project, to be her co-hosts. In turn, we are delighted to invite you, our TBP patrons and friends, to this exclusive event in Rome!
​
The Ball celebrates the patronage of the historic Pamphilj family, who patronized St. Peter's and St. John Lateran Basilicas, as well as great Masters like Bernini and Borromini who created magnificent masterpieces, leaving a legacy for us and future generations. The Truth & Beauty Project mission is to make masterpieces of people's lives and to enable that legacy to radiate to future generations.
