Written by DFW501c Reporter

On November 15, 2025, the Folds of Honor North Texas Gala brought more than 1,700 guests to the field at AT&T Stadium, raising over $4.6 million for educational scholarships.

A highlight of the evening was a fireside chat between former President George W. Bush and Folds of Honor CEO and Founder Lt. Col. Dan Rooney, whose conversation on service and sacrifice set a powerful tone for the night. The program also featured a moving testimony from Ginger Gilbert Ravella, widow of Major Troy Gilbert, whose children have received five Folds of Honor scholarships.

The event included a VIP reception, field-level dinner, and a high-energy live auction with one-of-a-kind items that drove enthusiastic bidding, helping push the gala to a record fundraising total.
