The Rostow Awards Dinner honors community leaders who have made a significant difference in the lives of children and families, and whose work is aligned with TAP’s mission. Awards are given for Lifetime Achievement and Leadership. The annual gala occurs in the fall.
The Rostow Awards Dinner was started over a decade ago by the organization’s Board of Trustees. Our Board Members and Dinner Committee Members have thrown their energy and influence behind this benefit and have made it a significant event in the education, health, and welfare fields, bringing an awareness of TAP’s causes to a wide array of influential Texans.
In the past, it has been TAP’s great pleasure to honor the following individuals:
