A Weekend of Elegance and Impact: Highlights from #AlphaDerbyWeekend 2024

Step into a world where sophistication meets philanthropy with #AlphaDerbyWeekend, hosted by the Alphas of Atlanta. From May 2nd to May 5th, 2024, this event promised—and delivered—an unforgettable blend of elegance and festivity.

Imagine starting your weekend with the Alphas of Atlanta Open Golf Tournament on Friday. The greens were alive with camaraderie and friendly competition, setting the perfect tone for what was to come. As the day transitioned into night, we moved to the Kick-Off Social and Concert. Picture an evening filled with music, laughter, and a vibrant atmosphere that set the stage for an extraordinary weekend.

Saturday brought the highlight of #AlphaDerbyWeekend—the Kentucky Derby Watch Party. Attendees dressed to the nines, embodying the spirit of the Derby with their finest attire. The excitement in the air was visible as everyone gathered to witness the thrill of the race. This wasn’t just an event; it was an experience that left a lasting impression.

But the fun didn’t stop there. Sunday was all about the beloved tradition of the Sunday Jazz Brunch. Smooth tunes, delightful cuisine, and a magical atmosphere made it the perfect finale to a weekend filled with unforgettable moments.

Beyond the glamour and excitement, #AlphaDerbyWeekend had a deeper purpose. By participating, attendees contributed to local non-profit educational foundations. Since its inception in 2015, this event has raised nearly $1 million to support essential programs for elementary, middle, and high school students. From college scholarships to technology acquisitions, the impact of this event paves the way for a brighter future.

#AlphaDerbyWeekend is more than just an event—it’s a movement. It’s a celebration of generosity, community, and the power of coming together for a common cause.
