The Salvation Army of North Texas will bring its annual Echelon Gala to the Frontiers of Flight Museum on September 18, with tickets starting at $1,750. The fundraiser is the capstone of a year of fundraising and volunteer work by Echelon, the organization’s next-generation network. It is a major fall gathering for Dallas donors looking to turn a formal night out into direct support for local social services.
According to the CultureMap Dallas event listing, Bryn Carden, Issy Crow, and Stuyvie Coleman will chair the gala, while Molly and Justin Cox will serve as honorary chairs.
Reception, Dinner And A Late Gala Fete
The evening is scheduled to move from a reception into dinner before concluding with the Gala Fete portion later in the night, according to The Salvation Army. Organizers say the event is subject to change because of weather or other concerns.
The Salvation Army of North Texas lists the 2026 gala and fete for Friday, September 18, with tickets and tables currently available. The organization’s fundraising calendar also lists the event among its signature annual gatherings.
Echelon Puts Young Dallas Donors To Work
Echelon is designed to mobilize the next generation for The Salvation Army through fellowship and networking, donations and fundraising, and hands-on service. The group’s local chapter says its work is intended to build relationships around volunteering while connecting younger supporters with the organization’s broader mission, as outlined by The Salvation Army of North Texas.
That mission reaches well beyond one evening at a museum. The North Texas organization focuses on poverty, addiction, homelessness, hunger, domestic violence, youth programs, emergency family services, veterans, and disaster response, according to its services overview.
With the date now set, the Echelon Gala gives Dallas supporters a clear deadline for a high-dollar charitable commitment—and a polished setting in which to make it. Tickets begin at $1,750, and final event details should be checked with the organization before attending.
