Grant Halliburton Foundation hosted The Hope Party patrons and appreciation event at Bachendorf’s Galleria Dallas on Oct. 12 to thank those who are supporting the organization’s upcoming event.
The Hope Party co-chair Diana Hamilton, remarked, “Thank you for turning out tonight. The Hope Party continues to grow thanks to you, our generous supporters. We have a fun filled evening on November 18 with a cocktail reception, dinner, dancing to the music of Stratosphere, a wine pull and a fabulous auction. And it’s your support that allows Grant Halliburton Foundation to give help and hope to young people and their families.”
Kevin Hall, Grant Halliburton Foundation president, said, “I add my thanks and appreciation to all of you, especially our honorary co-chairs, Lael and Peter Brodsky, with Lael here tonight. This year’s theme, ‘Don’t Stop Believing’ is what we tell people every day. Don’t give up hope that you or your loved one can find help and live mentally well.”
Miles Parker told attendees about the exciting auction, which includes amazing trips, exclusive experiences, and one-of-a-kind items.
Amanda Bailey spoke about the Tribute Wall, which is new this year. “You can purchase a spot in memory or in honor of someone special to be displayed on a featured tribute wall at The Hope Party for $250,” Bailey said. “Even if you’re not attending, anyone can purchase one to honor a friend, loved one or colleague.”
