From red carpet to real impact

A look inside the Doing Good in Dallas charity gala

Posted

One of the most star-studded red carpets in the Dallas–Fort Worth area in 2025 set the tone for an evening where glamour met generosity.

The inaugural Doing Good in Dallas Charity Gala marked a powerful milestone for philanthropy in North Texas, drawing celebrities, professional athletes, business leaders and community advocates together for an unforgettable night rooted in purpose and giving.

Hosted inside the exclusive Stella Jet Brands hangar, the high-profile affair unfolded beneath private jets that served as a striking backdrop – an intentional nod to the organization’s mission of turning access into impact – while fusing luxury, entertainment and philanthropy under a nostalgic “Nod to the ’90s and 2000s” theme.

Guided by the leadership of Stella Jet Brands led by Tia Minzoni, Doing Good in Dallas was created to transform influence and opportunity into immediate community support. The organization mobilizes its elite network of entrepreneurs, creators and community leaders to meet real needs for local families quickly and with dignity. From back-to-school initiatives to holiday toy and stocking drives, each effort is thoughtfully designed to ensure children and teens feel seen, valued, and supported.

The December 2, 2025, gala in Addison benefited Trina’s Kids Foundation and The World’s Largest Toy Drive, a 12-city philanthropic tour led by entrepreneur and angel investor Dan Fleyshman. Proceeds and toy donations from the evening resulted in thousands of toys being distributed to families and spreading joy throughout the holiday season.

The star-studded evening featured live performances by Twista, Mario and internationally acclaimed violinist Richmond Punch. Hollywood actor Charlie Sheen and Dallas media personality Lady Jade served as hosts, while Dallas Cowboys players, professional athletes, actors, and notable community figures made their way down the red carpet.

With its first gala setting a bold precedent, Doing Good in Dallas continues its mission of transforming generosity into tangible impact, with the next charity gala slated for Dec. 1, 2026.

From red carpet moments to real community impact, Doing Good in Dallas is just taking off and ready to soar. Learn more at www.DoingGoodInDallas.com.
