Parade of Homes finale marks another year of building support for DFW kids

Dallas CASA ended the 29th annual Parade of Playhouses with a grand finale, The Closing Party at Breadwinners, NorthPark Center.

It was a fun way to celebrate and thank the incredible builders and architects who make this event possible. Over 100 guests joined us to enjoy drinks, snacks and a lively wine pull.

It was a pleasure to see so many familiar faces and meet new friends who share our passion for supporting children in protective care.
