2015 Heritage Award Dinner Wrap Up Over $2 Million Raised for our Kids You did it! Nearly 1,100 Boys and Girls Country supporters attended the 2015 Heritage Award Dinner, raising just over $2 million dollars for the care of our children! We were pleased to honor John and Lisa Walker for their work in the community and belief in the Boys and Girls Country mission. John Walker, Chief Executive Officer of EnerVest, Ltd., is a leader in the energy industry and in the Houston community. He and his wife Lisa have modeled a legacy of philanthropic involvement to their children, each of whom is active in numerous causes based in Houston and its surrounding areas. The annual Heritage Award Dinner not only allows Boys and Girls Country to honor those who are champions of our children and our mission, but it also raises crucial funds for the day-to-day operation of our home. More than 100 children find a home at BGC, and your support ensures that they are fed, clothed, educated, and brought up in a loving, Christian environment with Teaching Parents that love them as if they were their own. We thank all of the volunteers and donors that made this night possible. Without you, Boys and Girls Country would just be a good idea! 2015 Heritage Award Dinner Underwriters Ponderosa Carriage House Bedell and Mobil Steel International, Inc.
