Join us for the 2023 JDRF Promise Ball

and help us Turn Type One into Type None!

We are excited to welcome everyone back to the Hilton Americas on April 15, 2023 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. 2023 Promise Ball Chairs, Suzette and Marshall Lang, are excited to bring you an incredible night. The 2022 Promise Ball raised over $3.7 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!
