What an incredible night! ❤️🎭
It has taken me a little while to finally sit down and make this post because I honestly don’t know how to put into words how grateful I am for everyone who made our 3rd Annual ACOC Masquerade Ball & Casino Night so special.
Looking through these photos brings back so many wonderful moments—the laughter, the dancing, the auction excitement, the beautiful masks, and most importantly, being surrounded by so many people who continue to believe in and support ACOC.
What began as a way to honor our son Alejandro and keep his memory alive has grown into something that means so much to our family. Every scholarship we are able to give, every student we support, and every opportunity we have to give back reminds me that his legacy continues. ❤️
To our sponsors, donors, auction contributors, volunteers, friends, family, and every single person who attended - THANK YOU. Whether you sponsored us, donated an item, bought a ticket, placed a bid, volunteered your time, or simply showed up to support us, you were part of making this night possible.
A very special thank you to Merlyn, Matt, Geo, Rosy, Trey, and Juan Carlos. So much happens behind the scenes to bring a night like this together, and I am incredibly grateful for the time, energy, love, and support each of you gave to make this event so special. I truly could not have done it without all of you. ❤️
And to everyone who danced, laughed, bid, played, celebrated and made the evening so much FUN—you understood the assignment! 😂🎭🥂
My heart is full. Thank you for helping us continue Alejandro’s legacy and for being part of the ACOC family.
And a special thank you to Austin with Apollo Productions for covering our evening so beautifully. 📸❤️ We’re so grateful to have these wonderful photos to look back on and remember such a special night.
