The event marks the first fundraiser of the Foundation’s 20th anniversary year and supports its mission to provide mental health education, resources, and suicide prevention support for children, teens, and young adults across North Texas.
Tickets are $250, with sponsorship opportunities available. More information and tickets are available at GrantHalliburton.org/boh.
