About our Event
Step into an evening where the spirit of Hawaii meets the heart of Texas a night shaped by purpose, celebration, and profound connection. Our 23rd Annual Gala will be transformed into an unforgettable Hawaiian-themed Luau, filled with vibrant energy, soulful moments, and the unmistakable magic of the islands.
Envision the aromas of authentic Hawaiian cuisine drifting through the room, the warm glow of island lights casting a soft radiance across joyful faces, and the sound of shared laughter rising among guests who gather with one united mission. This is more than an event; it is an immersive experience of Aloha one that invites you into beauty, joy, and genuine community while advancing hope for courageous mothers and their children.
Join us for a celebration that honors resilience, uplifts families, and strengthens the foundation of the work we are called to do. Come feel the purpose. Come witness the transformation. Come be part of something extraordinary.
This elegant Luau will not only captivate your senses it will raise the critical funds needed to support and honor the remarkable journeys of the women and children we serve. This is a night you will remember.
