Houston's first fundraiser was a success!
Fun Day For A Day was our first fundraising event in Houston. It was such an exhilarating afternoon! The guests had a great time while raising money and spread awareness about the For A Day Foundation.
Thanks to all the ladies on the Local Advisory Committee for organizing this wonderful fundraiser and special thanks to Vivian Almeida for opening her home to the guests and hosting this very special event.
California Pizza Kitchen catered the event by delivering delicious, savory sandwiches, kettle chips, cookies, and decadent brownies.
