An Evening in Casablanca Raises More Than $360,000


On April 29 TMA Foundation celebrated its 23rd annual gala, As Time Goes By: An Evening in Casablanca, at the Hilton Anatole Hotel in Dallas. Nearly 500 persons attended to support the award-winning health initiatives that TMAF makes possible, including Hard Hats for Little Heads, Minority Scholarship Program, Walk With a Doc Texas and county medical society, alliance and medical student chapter outreach initiatives.


Host City Chairs, Lee Ann Pearse, MD and her husband, Einar Vagnes, are long-time volunteers and Major Donors to the foundation.


Guests were delighted with silent and live auctions, a specialty cocktail station provided by Frost 321 and live music by Hunter Sullivan and his band. More than 60 volunteers — medical student members from every Texas medical school, accompanied by TMA and TMAA members — helped to ensure the event was a great success.
