On Thursday, September 4th, the fifth annual Gala Mexicana lit up Laredo, Texas, as we came together with friends, sponsors, and the community in support of the Children’s Rehabilitation Institute TeletonUSA (CRIT).
We gathered with our community in Laredo for the fifth annual Gala Mexicana benefiting the Children’s Rehabilitation Institute TeletonUSA (CRIT). It was a star-studded evening hosted by Univision anchors Raúl González, Karina Banda, Paco Fuentes, and Yaya García, with the special participation of influencer Kunno, who joined us in celebrating this unforgettable night of solidarity.
Guests enjoyed a lovely evening featuring a casino and a raffle. Yet the most meaningful moment came with the presence of Moisés Díaz, a 15-year-old who has been receiving therapy at CRIT for more than 10 years. Today, Moisés is a teenager with a promising future, and his testimony highlights the importance of every donation in helping more children transform their lives.
