Congratulations to Our 2023 Annual Awards Recipients

Awards & Recognition, Events & Programs,

Thank you to everyone who joined us for an exciting Annual Awards Extravaganza at the fabulous Post Oak Hotel on Friday, December 1! It was our largest awards luncheon ever, with 600 attendees, more awards, and new scholarships. We gave Annual Awards of Excellence to nine deserving members, recognized two outstanding buildings with a TOBY Award, and awarded 15 students with scholarships on behalf of the Houston BOMA Foundation. Plus, our generous members and guests donated toys to the Houston Fire Department's Operation Stocking Stuffer for the 12th year of our toy drive partnership. Thank you again to all of our participants and sponsors for making this year's event possible. Please join us in congratulating our 2023 members of the year!
