About the HOLLY BALL 2026, An Elegant Evening by the Sea
The HOLLY BALL is the signature holiday fundraiser of the Central New Jersey (NJ) Chapter of The Links, Incorporated, bringing together more than 500 distinguished guests biennially to celebrate community, service, and impact.
As part of one of the nation’s foremost volunteer service organizations—comprising over 17,000 professional African American women across 299 chapters worldwide—our chapter remains committed to enriching, sustaining, and advancing the cultural and economic well-being of African Americans and communities of African ancestry.
Through dedicated service across Mercer, Middlesex, Monmouth, Somerset, and Union Counties, our members contribute thousands of volunteer hours annually to impactful programming in education, health, and economic empowerment.
