Breakthrough Houston’s Cultivating Growth Luncheon is an annual event that celebrates the impact of transformative programming, educational equity, and our thriving community. Held each spring, the luncheon brings together supporters, educators, and advocates to honor the achievements of our students and the partners who help make their success possible.
The 2025 event highlighted Breakthrough Houston’s 30 years of impact and featured inspiring student stories, remarks from community leaders, and recognition of a foundational partnership with St. John’s School.
