With Texas-Sized Warmth, Get ready for a party as big as Texas! Houston Children’s Charity and Porsche River Oaks & Porsche West Houston have saddled up for HCC’s first country-themed gala at 6:30 pm Saturday, October 18, 2025. Fittingly, this night of “firsts” will star headliners ALABAMA, the pioneering music icons widely considered to be modern country’s first true band.

Living up to Porsche’s “Driven by Dreams” slogan, powerhouse Title Sponsor Porsche River Oaks & Porsche West Houston — back for an unprecedented 17th year — present a dream night promising many of ALABAMA’s classics. Some of the 2005 Country Music Hall of Fame titans’ 43 No.1 hits include the singalong classic “Mountain Music,” the Texas-proud “If You’re Gonna Play in Texas (You Gotta Have a Fiddle in the Band),” and many more. The band now performs only rare, select dates — making this a truly must-attend event.

You will step into a night where bold black and white sophistication meets Western Bright—think diamonds, bling, and high-style ranch royalty. Only one venue in Houston could host such a star-studded soiree: The Grand Ballroom at The Post Oak Hotel at Uptown Houston.

This year, HCC’s 28th Annual Gala honors a true Houston power couple, Frances Moody Buzbee and Tony Buzbee, this year’s talent underwriters. The pair are passionate philanthropists: super lawyer/legal eagle Tony Buzbee is a champion of the underprivileged; his wife Frances supports myriad causes, including rescuing unwanted animals on their East Texas Ranch and Frances Farms. Both have supported HCC’s mission for children in need: Tony has been a champion for HCC’s ever-growing Chariots for Children van program, while The Moody Foundation has donated vans to the cause.

On behalf of our esteemed Board of Directors and Advisory Board, Porsche River Oaks & Porsche West Houston’s Maria Moncada Alaoui, Robert Dale, and Marianna Brasel — and the Houston children in need that we tirelessly serve — HCC proudly invites you to this dazzling night. Table sponsorships and a limited number of individual tickets are available now. As always, your support directly improves the lives of underprivileged, abused, and disabled children in Greater Houston who would be otherwise left behind.
