Child Advocates hosted its 26th annual Angels of Hope Luncheon and Fashion Presentation at the Royal Sonesta Houston Galleria. Event chair Victoria Bryant, honorees Renee Kariv and Pamela Fazzone, Child Advocates CEO Sonya Galvan, honorees Victoria Varner, Kathi Davis, and Bridgett Matthes, and event chair Chastiti Horne (pictured, from left) enjoyed an afternoon with 350 other supporters that raised more than $270,000 for abused and neglected children in the community. This year’s luncheon featured a Neiman-Marcus fashion show of holiday-ready attire and a marketplace featuring local-boutique offerings including custom hats, jewelry, and home décor, with proceeds benefiting Child Advocates. Volunteers Kathi Davis, Pamela Fazzone, Renee Kariv, Bridgett Matthes, Diane Rifai, and Victoria Varner were honored for their service as court-appointed advocates for foster children for more than 15 years, assisting 167 children with more than 13,000 volunteer hours.
