High-Tech High Heels To Host 11th Annual Friendraiser to Empower K–12 Girls in STEM

Dallas event on September 18th to Raise $70,000 for Girls’ STEM Education

DALLAS, TX, UNITED STATES, September 9, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The North Texas Chapter of High-Tech High Heels (HTHH) will host its 11th Annual Friendraiser on Thursday, September 18, 2025, from 6:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at Royal Oaks Country Club, located at 7915 Greenville Avenue, Dallas, TX. This annual event brings together supporters, partners, and community members for a fun evening including live and silent auctions. Proceeds will raise critical funds for STEM education programs that benefit K–12 girls and young women across North Texas.

“It’s a chance to celebrate the impact we've made with our partner organizations like Girls Inc, and to hear directly from some of the young women whose lives have been changed thanks to the generosity of our donors,” said Sarah Bradshaw, Friendraiser Co-Chair, HTHH North Texas.

2025 Fundraising Goals
This year’s Friendraiser aims to raise $70,000, which will contribute to HTHH’s overall annual goal of $260,000. A portion of these funds will support the expansion of original programs like Oh Snap! Circuits, which introduces students to electrical engineering through safe, hands-on kits. To date, over 300 kits have been distributed to summer camps, after-school sessions, and in-school STEM programs.

Impact to Date
Since its founding in 2001, High-Tech High Heels has granted $2.3 million to nonprofit partner organizations in all of our communities, reaching more than fifty-six thousand young women and girls.

Partners and Sponsors
The 2025 Friendraiser is made possible thanks to generous corporate sponsors, including:
Presenting Sponsor: Texas Instruments

HTHH is also participating in the McDermott Challenge Grant, a $50,000 matching grant that requires at least $50,000 to be raised at this year’s Friendraiser in order to unlock the full amount.
