Buckner International’s inaugural Hope for Children Benefit will feature country music performer Jimmy Wayne with emcee Paige McCoy Smith of WFAA’s Good Morning Texas, as well as a live and silent auction, interactive event and international cuisine. All proceeds will benefit children served by Buckner Foster Care and Adoption.

Founded in 1879, Buckner International is one of the oldest organizations in continual operation in Dallas. Today, Buckner serves half a million vulnerable children, families and elders each year in the United State and worldwide.
