HOUSTON (Oct. 3, 2025) – **Dynamo & Dash Charities**, the official 501(c)(3) non-profit arm of HDFC, hosted its fourth annual **Boots & Suits Gala** in recording-setting style on Wednesday night. Generous supporters of the organization showed up in spades, with more than 250 attendees raising a record-breaking total in support of the important work that Dynamo & Dash Charities brings to the City of Houston every single day.

In addition to the record-setting proceeds generated through the silent auction and donations, Dynamo & Dash Charities awarded a total of $100,000 in grants to five local non-profit organizations during the event, aligning with the organization’s five community pillars – Youth Development, Food Insecurity, Military Support, Cancer Support & Awareness, and Energy Sustainability.

The grant winners included:
