Join us for the Thriving Families Luncheon on Tuesday, October 13, 2026, at 11:00 AM at the Junior League of Houston, and be part of a community that helps families in Houston’s East End move from crisis to stability. Your support provides essential needs, education, youth programs, job training, and parenting support. These services meet families where they are and help them build stronger, more secure futures.
This year, we are proud to honor the John P. McGovern Foundation as the recipient of the East End Legacy Award for their longstanding commitment to the CFC family and the communities we serve.
About the East End Legacy Award
The East End Legacy Award honors individuals and organizations whose generosity, leadership, and values reflect the mission of Community Family Centers. It celebrates those who invest in people, expand opportunity, and help families move toward lasting stability—building a stronger, more connected East End where all families can thrive.
Your sponsorship supports families facing food insecurity, economic hardship, and limited access to opportunity. In the past year alone, 15,992 Family Support Services and 2,828 Education and Workforce Services were provided through Community Family Centers. Your support helps make this possible—offering access to food, education, job training, and the essential resources families need to move forward with stability and hope.
As a sponsor of the 2026 Thriving Families Luncheon, you make a direct and lasting impact on families in Houston’s East End. Sponsorships include meaningful recognition and the chance to align your values with a mission that transforms lives every day.
