Dear Friends:
SIRE Under the Stars is back in person and we invite you to support and attend this year’s gala on Saturday, April 2, 2022, at the River Oaks Country Club beginning at 6:30 p.m. This year we will be celebrating and honoring, Marie and Bill Wise. Marie and Bill have been long-time friends of SIRE and we are truly honored to have the opportunity to recognize this humble and philanthropic dynamic duo.
The Wises are no strangers to the philanthropic community. Their generosity has not only benefited the special needs community but organizations in the healthcare community and arts and educational organizations across the Greater Houston community. Marie and Bill are models of the philanthropic mindset that has built a better world for us to live in. In addition to their dedication of improving the lives of others, they also have a strong affinity for horses and know personally the special relationship formed between horse and rider.
SIRE serves adults and children with a wide variety of special needs including, but not limited to cerebral palsy, autism, Down syndrome, multiple sclerosis, developmental delay, attention deficit/ hyperactivity disorder, traumatic brain injury and spinal cord injury. Proceeds from this event will provide critical support for the SIRE riding programs, build desperately needed facilities, and help to maintain the health of our specially trained horses used daily for children with special needs.
Will you join us in supporting and honoring the efforts of Marie and Bill by attending SIRE Under the Stars? Your donation today will ensure SIRE continues to provide life-changing programs for riders like Michelle. When Michelle started riding at SIRE, she was very excited and quickly showed her natural horsewoman abilities. She previously used a wheelchair to get around most of the time. After about six months of riding, Michelle moved to a three-wheeled walker and then onto walking unassisted.
Michelle's horse played a critical role in her success. SIRE maintains a wide variety of horses to meet the physical and emotional needs of each rider and each horse is specially trained to handle an array of noises, quick motions, and unexpected actions that can arise during any session. This year, we are seeking sponsorship of our herd. With over 30 horses ridden by more than 250 riders a week, it takes a lot to care for them and ensure they maintain good health throughout the year. If you would like to sponsor a horse in addition to your ticket or table, please add it to your ticket or table purchase upon check out.
If you have any questions, please contact Beth at 281-414-4830 and she will be happy to assist you. Thank you in advance for your support and consideration of these requests. We look forward to seeing you at the event!
Sincerely,
Mary Elizabeth Wise Sand and Greg Mostyn
