What legacy will we leave for the generations who follow?
Every day, we have a choice: build walls or build bridges.
For more than 40 years, iACT has built bridges, bringing people together across faiths, cultures, generations, and life experiences to create a stronger, more compassionate Central Texas.
We invite you to join us for A Night Under One Sky 2026: Bridges of Faith, Legacies of Hope on Monday, October 5, at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center.
We’re honored to welcome Dr. Melva K. Wallace, President and CEO of Huston-Tillotson University, as our keynote speaker, with special musical performances by Dave Madden and Friends.
At iACT, we build more than programs. We build a community where every person—regardless of faith, age, culture, economic circumstance, or country of origin—is seen, valued, and belongs.
That vision comes to life every day as we welcome refugee families, empower young people, preserve homes for older adults and people living with disabilities, and create opportunities for neighbors to learn, serve, and grow together.
We don’t just change lives—we change the way people live together.
Your sponsorship makes this possible. Together, we are creating a future where every person is honored, every neighbor belongs, and every bridge we build today becomes a legacy of hope for generations to come.
