The 2012 Gala was a tremendous success. The energy and excitement lasted all night with outstanding food, lively music, a full casino and an inspiring keynote address from Lewis Timberlake. A special thanks to our sponsors, including the St. David’s Foundation and Austin Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery.

We could not have realized such success without you!
