Grow the Village Gala is one of our favorite nights of the year – an evening when our community comes together for fellowship, celebration, and to raise support for vulnerable families in our city and beyond. We love hosting this beautiful event and connecting with those who are passionate about creating brighter futures for children and families in our community.

Join us for dinner and drinks, inspiring guest speakers, silent auction, and an exciting live auction with the Cowboy Auctioneers. It will be an unforgettable evening!

October 17, 2024 at Canyonwood Ridge in Dripping Springs from 6pm-11pm. Cocktail attire recommended.
