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.

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!
