Tulipalooza 23

Tulipalooza is an annual tulip festival that brings a burst of color to North Texas while benefiting a dozen local charities. Hundreds of thousands of tulip bulbs are imported from Holland and planted at the Waxahachie Civic Center in December. Come March they’ll be in full bloom and ready for pictures and picking alike, meaning you can take home your own gorgeous pop of color.

Mark your calendar for March 17-26 and enjoy a festival filled with friends, family, flowers and food trucks. All while growing hope in our community and celebrating the natural beauty of tulips.

Tulipalooza is more than a celebration of beautiful flowers. It’s a way for everyone to grow hope in the community by supporting local charities.

Volunteer Opportunity: Summer Meal Support with United Way Dallas

The North Texas Summer & Supper Council ensures that every child has access to healthy meals in summer, addressing a vital need for hard-working families that rely on the federal nutrition programs during the school year. This program helps local meal providers raise awareness, increase meal sites and more effectively address child hunger in our community.

Volunteers can help bring awareness to these sites through their own social media outlets. Volunteers are also able to purchase from an Amazon wish list link below that directly benefits one of the partner meal providers, Unique Pieces. This list includes various healthy and delicious snacks so children throughout the summer always have full bellies and big smiles.

Volunteers can serve at a local food pantry or summer meals site through CitySquare to ensure all children, families, and individuals in our community receive nutritious meals this summer.

There are 3 options to engage:

1. Purchase requested snacks from an Amazon wish list
2. Summer Meals site support
3. Social media awareness posts
