The second These Boots Are Made for Mahjing, benefitting the MD Anderson Cancer Center Boot Walk, was an inspiring evening of unity, hope, and Mahjong! Held at the Southside Place Clubhouse in Houston, TX, the event brought together an incredible community standing together in the fight against cancer — Mahjong style.
We are deeply grateful to our sponsors, raffle prize donors, and everyone who made the night so memorable. Together, we raised over $75,000, and your generosity and support make a real difference in the fight against cancer.
SAVE THE DATE - The third annual These Boots Are Made for Mahjing will be held on Friday, November 6, 2026!
We expect 250 guests in attendance, including local supporters and community leaders. All proceeds will directly support cancer research and patient programs at MD Anderson, bringing us closer to a future where no one must face this devastating disease.
Thank you in advance for your support and we hope you will join us in giving cancer the boot!
