Annual ‘Retro Wishes’ a Record Success

February 20, 2013 | Charitable Giving

Houston (February 20, 2013) – During the annual “Retro Wishes” culinary adventure, The Bay Area Chi Omega Alumnae Chapter, in partnership with Perry’s Steakhouse & Grille, raised more than $112,000 to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation® of the Texas Gulf Coast and Louisiana Chapter. Held at Perry’s Steakhouse & Grille in Clear Lake, Texas, the five-course wine dinner accompanied by entertainment and a live auction attracted Make-A-Wish supporters from across the Bay Area. Since its inception

, Perry’s annual event for Make-A-Wish has raised more than $400,000 and contributed to the granted wishes of more than 70 Houston-area children.
