CASA of Hidalgo County hosted its sparkling Sequins & Saddles Gala on August 14 at the McAllen Convention Center, bringing together supporters for a night to benefit children in foster care. Guests enjoyed festive casino games, an exciting silent and live auction, dinner, and dancing—all in celebration of CASA’s mission to give every child a voice.

The evening honored Judge Carlos Villalon Jr. for his outstanding service to children and families. Proceeds from this unforgettable event will strengthen CASA’s efforts to recruit, train, and support volunteer advocates across Hidalgo County.
