Gala Sponsorship

We hope you will join us in supporting children who are deaf and hard of hearing at Texas Hearing Institute’s 2025 Hear with You! Gala.

Claire and David de Roode will Chair the Gala honoring Leslie and Randy Newcomer on Thursday, March 27th at The Post Oak Hotel. The evening will include an inspirational speech from a special guest speaker, a cocktail reception followed by a gourmet dinner, and participation in competitive auction bidding. You also may sponsor at a level that includes attending a VIP Reception.

This Gala is Texas Hearing Institute’s largest fundraiser, and thanks to generous donors like you last year we were able to provide services to more than 9,000 children from 65 Texas counties and 3 Louisiana parishes, regardless of their family’s ability to pay.

Thank you for being a part of Hear With You! and contributing to a bright future for children with hearing loss.
