The Fort Bend Education Foundation is pleased to announce its theme for its 23rd annual gala to be held on March 5, 2016 at the Sugar Land Marriott Town Square. Gala Co-Chairs Jamie Fairchild and Terri Wang revealed that this year’s theme is Bollywood Nights, presented by Perdue Brandon Fielder Collins & Mott, LLP.  The evening promises to be an exquisitely stylized event.  This lavish and opulent trip to the Bollywood Filmfare Awards will celebrate the successes of the Fort Bend Education Foundation and will serve as a thank you to the community for its generous support.

Guests are invited to become celebrities in their favorite saris accented with golden flare during a bejeweled night of rich textures and vibrant colors. They can earn their own awards by bidding generously on the silent auction items or go for the live auction items offered by auctioneer James Patterson. After partaking in a feast, guests will create some dance drama while enjoying the band Password.

The Fort Bend Education Foundation touches every school in Fort Bend ISD. Its mission is to enrich and enhance the quality of education for all Fort Bend ISD students through its grants to teachers and schools programs.

Planning is now in progress. For more information regarding sponsorships, auction donations, individual tickets, raffle tickets and volunteer opportunities, visit www.fortbendisd.com/foundation.
