Photos - February 11, 2010 Beads for Deeds: the Fanatical Change Mardi Gras Masquerade
We were so excited to partner with the Fanatical Change Foundation,
a unique and powerful group that raises funds for Houston families who
have suffered a tragic loss. We had a fabulous time dancing to
the zydeco band, collecting our beads (for good deeds only, of course)
bidding on auction
items and collaborating with Houstonians to help other Houston
residents. Every single dollar raised at this
event was used
the very next day to purchase goods and services for
7 families during their greatest
time of need. View the video
of the
distribution of the donations to the families
who benefited
from this
event.

Photos - January 31, 2010 YTAC Olympics
As a part of fundraising and awareness initiatives for Young Texans Against Cancer (YTAC), the first annual YTAC Olympics
were held on January 31 at Spotts Park in Houston. Over 20 teams
of 10 competed in adult field day events including tug-o-war, relay
race, tricycle race, obstacle course and hot shot. It was a cold
day, but that didn't phase our team! Even though we didn't walk
away with an award (other than knowing we were the hottest team on the
field),
we're pretty
sure we were the real winners of the tug-o-war and the
spirit award!
