HOUSTON NONPROFIT Dec My Room threw a country-music-filled bash at House of Blues, where supporters two-stepped the night away and raised record-breaking proceeds, which will be used to decorate and customize hospital rooms of pediatric and young-adult patients all over the country. To date, the organization has improved the attitudes and healing process of 18,000 patients in nearly 200 hospitals.
Chaired by Laurel Bashaw and Dodi Willingham, the "Kick Up Your Boots for Kids" night included music courtesy of icons Wade Bowen and Randy Rogers. Founders Kendall Plank and Susan Plank were thrilled with the turnout and the till of $350,000, and expressed gratitude to those who donated to the cause.
Federal Grill’s Matt Brice donated a wine and whiskey dinner, which was so popular that it sold twice! The Plank family threw in a private three-day hunt at their Sycamore Springs Ranch in Kerrville, too.
