Hope Gala Benefiting Operation Kindness

It is the hope of Operation Kindness that together with our community we can end pet over-population and treat our companion animals with the dignity and respect they deserve. It is our hope that one day every dog, cat, kitten, or puppy will have a loving, forever home. This hope inspired us to create the Hope Gala to benefit Operation Kindness, the oldest and largest no-kill animal shelter in North Texas.

Presented by: Bachendorf's Fine Jewelers

Event Chairs: Lawrence and Katy Bock
