Phoebe & Bobby Tudor
Community Honorees
HSPVA Friends celebrates Phoebe and Bobby Tudor, whose leadership of the passage of HISD’s $1.89-billion 2012 bond referendum has made a tremendous impact on Kinder HSPVA. Their generous support of Houston’s arts and education sectors has had lasting effects not only for HSPVA families, but also for public-school students across Houston.
Brookfield Properties
Corporate Honoree
HSPVA Friends celebrates Brookfield Properties, which has partnered with Kinder HSPVA for nearly twenty years by underwriting performance and exhibition opportunities for students. In preparation for the school’s move downtown in January 2019, Brookfield Properties expanded its support in both Allen Center and Houston Center to connect Kinder HSPVA students to the downtown community.
