THE WOODLANDS, TX – The Woodlands Celebration of Excellence gala, presented by Woodforest National Bank, will honor Hometown Heroes and celebrate Interfaith’s 45 Year Anniversary.  The event will take place on Saturday, October 6 at 6 p.m. at The Woodlands Waterway Marriott Hotel & Convention Center.

In celebration of 45 years of caring in The Woodlands community, Interfaith selected Mr. Jerry and Dr. Ann Snyder as Honorary Chairs for the 2018 event. The Snyders were chosen on this very special anniversary because of their more than three decades of service to The Woodlands community. Their family values embody the generosity and collaborative spirit The Woodlands was built upon. The Snyders have called The Woodlands home for over 30 years, raising their children in our great community and now their grandchildren as well.

“We are honored that Dr. Ann and Jerry Snyder have agreed to serve as the Honorary Co-Chairs for this event. As we celebrate this monumental anniversary of Interfaith of The Woodlands, it was important that our honorary chairs be individuals who believe in the importance of service and community. The Snyders are wonderful examples of servant leaders, and we are so grateful for their tremendous hearts that serve Interfaith and The Woodlands community,” said Missy Herndon, President and CEO of Interfaith of The Woodlands.

The Celebration of Excellence Gala brings our community together in the name of service to celebrate the beautiful spirit of generosity. We are grateful to be a small part of the story of Interfaith and The Woodlands.”
