Our 8th Annual UNITED Tribute was held January 18, 2020!
A record 1,100 guests joined us to fill the grand ballroom at the Embassy Suites by Hilton Denton Convention Center for a sold-out celebration for the Denton County community. In addition to recognizing several organizations and individuals for their dedication to improving and transforming lives in Denton County, we announced $2.3 million raised by our community, and crowned two community dancers as Champions of “Dancing with Our Stars.”
