Honoree Diane Rehm will be a guest speaker and there will be a special VIP Reception with her at 5pm for Platinum and Gold Underwriters, and their guests, or with the additional purchase of a $100 ticket for those attending the gala.
This event will raise awareness and generate critical funds to help further the mission of the only Parkinson’s organization in the greater Houston area that offers vital comprehensive programs to help thousands of families manage the daily challenges brought on by this progressive disease.
