Information about the event follows:
Jenkins Custom Homes, with a special thanks to Sarah Luebcke, proudly unites with the Lance Armstrong Foundation to host the 2008 All for Hope Gala. Even though this is a private red carpet event, there will be a limited number of silent auction items found throughout the home during the 2008 Parade of Homes. The Jenkins staff will also be wearing the yellow “LIVESTRONG” wristbands during the Parade in show of their support. At Jenkins Custom Homes, we agree with Lance Armstrong, “Unity is strength, knowledge is power, and attitude is everything”.
The All for Hope Gala is shaping up to be THE charity event of the season! This star-studded event will feature live music, gourmet libations, a live & silent auction, the chance to win a brand new Mercedes-Benz, appearances by Miss Austin USA, the Wranglers & Toros cheerleaders, Roxanne from “The Apprentice” & Marie Hejl from “Cooking With Marie”. Other invited guests include: Eva Longoria, Lance Armstrong, Willie Nelson, Mayor Will Wynn, Governor Rick Perry, and many more.
All of this will be hosted in the Jenkins $2.98 Million Parade Home! Invitations will go out around the end of April. So, if you would like to be a part of this event, please email us at I want to be a part! We will draw 4 names and give away 4 invitations the week before the event.
