Description

Our OBI Mardi Gras will be held on Saturday, April 27, 2024 from 6:30 – 11 pm at our facility in Millersville, MD.  Our biggest fundraiser of the year, the 25th annual OBI Mardi Gras will raise critical funds for our training and programs that benefit nearly 400 people with disabilities who rely on our supports.  Through our workforce development efforts, we also provide customized services to connect local businesses with well-trained employees to combat their staffing shortages, which strengthens our entire community.

This gala is one of the best parties of the year! We offer our guests a delicious New Orleans-inspired menu, bar service, live entertainment & games, and music by crowd-favorite Oracle. In addition to dining & dancing, the silent auction is always a crowd-pleaser at Mardi Gras and raises thousands of dollars for our programs.  For our 25th anniversary of this event, we also have some new and special surprises in store for our guests.
