The Stars Scholarship Fund Rio Grande Valley Extravaganza returns on Thursday, April 16, 2026, for another unforgettable evening supporting higher education opportunities for students across South and West Texas.
Doors will open at 6:00 PM, and this year we are excited to welcome comedian Anjelah Johnson-Reyes as our featured entertainer. The Extravaganza brings together community leaders, businesses, and supporters for a night of laughter, great food, and philanthropy, all in support of college scholarships for deserving students.
Each year, this event raises critical funds that help students pursue their college dreams while reducing the financial barriers families face when paying for higher education.
Sponsorship Opportunities
Sponsorship opportunities are now available for the 2026 Extravaganza. Businesses and organizations can select from a range of sponsorship levels that provide visibility, engagement with community leaders, and the opportunity to make a lasting impact on students pursuing higher education.
