The Fort Bend Education Foundation is pleased to announce its theme for the 21st annual gala to be held on March 1st at the Sugar Land Marriott Hotel.

Gala co-chairs Patty and Terrie Gorney announced this year’s theme, “Roaring 20’s,” presented by PerdueBrandonFielderCollins&MottLLP.  The annual event promises to be the most opulent party of the season.  This hotsy totsy evening will celebrate the successes of the Fort Bend Education Foundation and serve as a thank you to the community for its generous support. The mission of the Fort Bend Education Foundation is to enrich and enhance the quality of education for all Fort Bend ISD students through its grant to teachers and schools programs.

Flappers, get dolled up in your fringe, feathers and pearls.  Dappers, don your spats, canes and top hats. Enjoy edibles and entertainment that is the cat’s meow, while bidding on swanky silent and live auction items. James Patterson is the auctioneer, and the joint will be jumping to the tunes of Password.

Planning is now in progress.  Information regarding sponsorship, auction donations, individual and raffle tickets and volunteer opportunities are available at www.fortbendisd.com/foundation. So, get a wiggle on to celebrate the 21st anniversary of the Fort Bend Education Foundation!
