Guests also enjoyed an exciting selection of raffles and live auction experiences, including scenic boat rides, exclusive wine-tasting packages, and more. Their enthusiastic participation made these moments fun, engaging, and impactful.
From the early-morning warm-ups to the final awards, the energy and unity on the course were inspiring. Every swing, every donation, and every shared moment contributed directly to strengthening AVANCE-Houston’s mission.
The organization also recognizes its dedicated volunteers and staff, whose behind-the-scenes work ensured a smooth and joyful experience for all. Their time and effort are deeply appreciated.
A special shoutout goes to the event committee members—District I, Council Member, Joaquin Martinez, Chase, Vice President, Community Manager Melissa Vela, Ambassador Services, Managing Director Carlos Telles, and Elevate Latinas Founder, Dr. Melanie Rodriguez—for helping spread the word and rally support for this year’s tournament. Their outreach and commitment played a vital role in making the event a success.
As Luz Flores, Executive Director of AVANCE-Houston, shared: “This tournament is more than golf—it’s about giving families a chance to thrive.”
AVANCE-Houston thanks everyone who played, volunteered, sponsored, and supported this memorable event. The organization looks forward to welcoming the community again next year for the 10th Annual Golf Tournament—another great day of golf and connection!
