The Annual Gala is the Houston Urban Debate League’s (HUDL) primary fundraising event. This year we are honored to have Lieutenant Governor David Dewhurst as our Gala keynote speaker. Funds from the Gala directly support debate programs for over eight hundred high school debaters served by the HUDL at 27 Houston high schools.
