About 600 people attended the event at The Woodlands Waterway Marriott Hotel & Convention Center, presented by Kingdom Investment Holdings and Private Luxe Travel.
“The Walk event was created in the spirit of Interfaith; bringing people together, in the name of service to raise critical funds to help families and seniors remain self-sufficient,” said Missy Herndon, President and CEO of Interfaith of The Woodlands. “We are so grateful to our community for their unwavering support of our neighbors by supporting this very fun and worthy event."
Headlined by Saks Fifth Avenue, the runway fashion show event honored eight community champions: Will Bonilla, Erin Doré, George Lindahl, Michelle Little, Julie Mayrant, Heather Sanford, Chef Austin Simmons and Tony Torres.
Additional fundraising at the after-party raised $30,000 for the Interfaith Food Pantry.
