About This Event
The 2026 Daya Gala: Rooted In Strength - A Celebration of Growth, Resilience, and New Beginnings, will be held on Friday, September 18, 2026, at the Sugar Land Marriott.
For 30 years, Daya has been rooted in strength - building deep, resilient foundations of trust, cultural understanding, and survivor-centered care. Sustained by the unwavering support of our community, these roots have made long-term healing possible for thousands of domestic and sexual violence survivors across Houston. The 2026 Gala honors this legacy while embracing purposeful growth - cultivating futures shaped by safety, agency, and possibility.
We invite you to partner with us as a 2026 Gala Sponsor and stand with us in empowering survivors and strengthening our community.
Guests will enjoy a lively reception followed by a moving program and dinner, and a special 30th anniversary birthday celebration—so be sure to bring your dancing shoes!
We are honored to welcome keynote speaker Alka Joshi, internationally bestselling author of The Henna Artist, The Secret Keeper of Jaipur, The Perfumist of Paris, and her newest novel, Six Days in Bombay. The evening will also feature a poweful testimonial from a Daya client whose journey reflects the resilience and hope your support makes possible.
Your investment in this milestone year ensures Daya continues to grow something enduring: a community where survivors are supported not only to survive, but to thrive.
Together, we can make an immediate and lasting impact!
