Join us for the 2022 JDRF Promise Ball and help us
Turn Type One into Type None!

We are excited to welcome everyone back to the ballroom April 9, 2022 for the JDRF Houston Promise Ball. As one of Houston's premier social events, the Promise Ball is an annual black-tie event benefiting the Houston market of the JDRF Southern Texas Chapter. More than 1,000 prominent philanthropic community leaders join JDRF for a seated dinner featuring delicious cuisine, silent and live auctions featuring one-of-a-kind items, exciting live entertainment, a night of dancing, and late night casino games with great prizes. We've missed you and we have all this and more in store for you and your friends and family. 2022 Promise Ball Chairs, Amber and Clay Bretches, are excited to bring you an incredible night. Our last in-person Promise Ball raised over $1.83 million for JDRF-funded research aimed at treating, preventing and curing type 1 diabetes in children and adults. We know, with your help, this gala will be the best Promise Ball yet!
