The Ark Gala 2025 will celebrate the 25th anniversary of the first child admitted to the shelter. The Ark Assessment Center and Emergency Shelter for Youth’s fund raiser begins at 6 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 18 at the Richard M. Borchard Regional Fairgrounds, 1213 Terry Shamsie Blvd., in Robstown.

The gala will feature Co-Masters of Ceremonies Rudy Treviño and Barbi Leo (KIII-TV “Domingo Live!” program co-hosts), silent/live auctions, dinner/dessert and Guest Speaker Shaleasha S. Mcneal, who will share her experiences as a shelter resident during 2004-2005.

Can you sponsor a table at one of the following levels: The Ark ($15,000), Stork ($10,000), Dove ($5,000), Giraffe ($2,500) or Leopard ($1,000)? All of them seat 10 and offer signage, recognition at the gala and newsletter/website thanks. To secure recognition of your charitable contribution in our printed program at the event, we need your commitment or payment by Aug. 16. Tax-deductible gifts for the auctions are needed by Aug. 16. Auction donors receive signage at the auction. Contact us as soon as possible so we can reserve your table. (Individual seats cost $60.)

The agency is licensed by the Texas Health and Human Services Commission to provide assessment services and emergency shelter to 61 children and youth, ages 0 through 17, who are removed from their homes due to abuse or neglect by a parent or guardian. The Ark has served more than 4,600 residents.

The gala’s proceeds pay for services that make a difference in the children’s lives at the facility. Monetary donations of any amount can also be made online by clicking here. Thank you for considering assisting the shelter. We look forward to hearing from you.
