Fun with Friends - 2008 Gala Photos

On Saturday, March 15, an auditorium full of happy people laughed and had a great time in support of Friends of Honduran Children. We are grateful to everyone who helped to make this event such a great success! Your generosity means that poor children in Honduras will have a better life by improving their homes, education and healthcare. A special thank you to The Staffing Connection/Level A for their cash contribution.

CHEX Television ran ads promoting the event for seven weeks , and partner media companies the Wolf and 980 KRUZ had excellent promotion of the event. (see latest ad below)
