More Than a Gala

For one remarkable evening, our community comes together with a shared purpose: to restore confidence, inspire hope, and walk alongside individuals whose lives have been touched by cancer.

The 14th Annual Alira Foundation Gala is more than a celebration—it is an investment in a journey of healing.

While our annual Makeover Day remains the heart of our mission, it is only one chapter of the story. Throughout the year, the Alira Foundation continues to support cancer survivors and their families by providing wellness services, educational resources, emotional encouragement, and meaningful moments of care that extend well beyond the day they ring the bell.

On Friday, September 18, 2026, we invite you to join us at the historic Junior League of Houston for an elegant evening dedicated to celebrating resilience and ensuring that no survivor has to navigate life after treatment alone.

Every ticket purchased, every sponsorship secured, and every donation made helps expand the services we can provide throughout the year, allowing us to reach more survivors, support more families, and continue building a community where healing is nurtured long after treatment ends.

Together, we celebrate strength.
Together, we restore confidence.
Together, we continue the journey.
