| Thank you, Madame President Edna Meyer-Nelson |
| After 3 celebrated years, Houston Children's Charity's president bids the position adieu. At the 2009 Annual HCC Board Meeting, Laura Ward thanked Edna Meyer-Nelson for her outstanding service as President. Laura said, "Edna brings in over $100,000 a year by speaking with friends, family and colleagues who make donations on her behalf." Laura presented Edna with a beautiful engraved crystal gavel. As the gavel was passed, Laura welcomed the new President, John B. Johnson and thanked him for his 2 year commitment to Houston Children's Charity and stated that everyone was anticipating his great leadership. |

| Takin' it to the Hoop |
Houston Children's Charity treated 100 of Houston's special children to a day of fun and basketball on Saturday, February 6th. The children watched as the Rice Owls tried to hold their own against the University of Alabama-Birmingham Blazers. The Blazers ended the exciting game by defeating the Owls 76-65.
We owe a huge thank you to Rice University, Jones College Associates of Rice, St. Martin's Episcopal Church, and Leslie Hinshaw for raising the money to purchase the basketball tickets, and coordinating the fun for HCC's kids. |
