To kick off the 15th annual Hope Party, Grant Halliburton Foundation hosted a kickoff event on July 25 at Simkhai in Highland Park Village where more than 60 guests gathered to learn more about the annual gala, set for Friday, November 22. Guests sipped beverages and sampled small bites provided by Bistro 31, while they shopped at Simkhai, where 15% of sales were donated back to the nonprofit organization.
“Tonight’s kickoff is not just a celebration but a launchpad for our most important fundraising event of the year,” Kevin Hall, president of Grant Halliburton Foundation, said. “It’s heartening to see so many dedicated supporters come together for a cause that truly makes a difference.”
Attendees also had the opportunity to hear from the 2024 Hope Party co-chairs. Each chair shared their excitement and commitment to the upcoming gala, setting the stage for a successful year ahead.
The event allowed guests to learn more about the Foundation and the upcoming Hope Party. The evening features dinner, dancing to the music of AURA by Scott Michaels, an incredible live and silent auction, and the popular wine and spirits pull. This celebratory soiree supports the Foundation’s work providing mental health education, resources and support to North Texas youth and their families.
