Houston Children's Charity's 25th Anniversary Luncheon

Celebrating 25 years of service to improve the quality of life for Greater Houston’s underprivileged, abused, and disabled children, Houston Children’s Charity will host its 25th Anniversary Luncheon presented by BMW of West Houston and Momentum BMW Southwest on Wednesday, Nov. 10, 2021, 11:30 a.m. – 1 p.m. at The Post Oak Hotel to honor outstanding individuals and organizations who have contributed to creating a world where every child has their own bed, clothing, school supplies, transportation, health services, and joyful holidays. 

For a quarter of a century, with the support and assistance from volunteers, donors and corporate sponsors, Houston Children’s Charity has made a critical impact on over 3.5 million children across Houston while providing support to more than 300 agencies and 14 unique direct programs all while leaving no legitimate request for assistance unanswered. 

Since its inception, Houston Children’s Charity has distributed 254 vans to families of disabled children, helped 40,000 school-aged students walk into school prepared for the new school year with much-needed school supplies, and provided 25,000 children with a better night’s sleep by distributing mattresses, box springs, bed frames, sheets, and pillows. More than 30,000 children have been provided with gently used clothing, shoes and accessories at no cost.

Houston Children’s Charity distributes 80,000 toys to 20,000 children through the Adopt-A-Family program and a Toy Distribution. Each year, $100,000 is awarded to the families at Texas Children’s Hospital to help pay for lodging, mortgage, car payments, meals, parking, and clothes. 

Houston Children’s Charity CEO and President Laura Ward will recognize award recipients for enhancing the quality of life one child at a time.
