How Your Contribution Empowers Family Houston to Strengthen Local Families

At Family Houston, we believe that strong families create strong communities. For more than 120 years, we’ve been dedicated to empowering families across Greater Houston by offering essential services that promote mental health, financial stability, and access to critical resources. This year, we are excited and honored to be the beneficiary of the La Petite Maison Gala held on December 4, 2024 at Hotel ZaZa Museum District. This prestigious event brings together the community to support local nonprofits like ours.

By attending or supporting this gala, you can help Family Houston continue its mission of building stronger families and, by extension, a stronger Houston.

What is the La Petite Maison Gala?

The La Petite Maison Gala is a unique blend of creativity and community impact. It’s an annual tradition that brings together Houston’s design community, business leaders, and philanthropists for an evening of elegance and purpose. This year, the gala will once again feature the Creating for a Cause initiative, where eight beautifully designed dollhouses are auctioned off to raise funds for local charities. 

Alexandra Killion, the visionary behind this one-of-a-kind gala, is an interior designer herself who debuted the gala in 2022 and has raised a collective $300K for local non-profit organizations. This year, the custom-curated dollhouses—designed by local Houston area interior designers—will be featured in the live auction. By attending and bidding, you’re not just purchasing a one-of-a-kind item, you’re directly contributing to Family Houston’s mission of offering essential services to families in need. Meet this years designers.

The Petite Maison Gala’s combination of creativity, philanthropy, and community spirit makes it a memorable evening that guests won’t want to miss. Alongside the auction, attendees can look forward to a gourmet dining experience, live entertainment, and an opportunity to network with others committed to making a difference.
