Make a Difference
gala is 'Texas-sized' success

AUSTIN - Southern hospitality was at its finest last Saturday as more than 325 supporters came together to raise more than $90,000 to make a difference in the lives of abused and neglected girls in Texas. The Red, White and Denim gala, held at the beautiful Barton Creek Resort and Spa, benefited New Life Children’s Center at Canyon Lake, one of four Texas children’s centers operated by Lutheran Social Services (media release).
