What: The 8th Annual Construction Concepts Holiday Party, presented by Elevate Management Group
Where: 51fifteen at Saks Fifth Avenue
PC Moment: As is tradition with Construction Concepts, every party has a charitable component and B.I.G. Love Cancer Care, which works to ease the journey of childhood cancer for families across Texas including those seeking care at Texas Children’s Cancer and Hematology Center and M.D. Anderson Children’s Cancer Hospital.
“We want to be known for more than the buildings we build,” Construction Concepts CEO Josh Weisman told the gathering of 300. “That’s why we established our charity initiative, BLDiT (Building Lives and Dreams in Texas). We want to build lives and dreams for those in need. That is the imprint on Houston we want to leave behind.”
As guests entered the restaurant, they were greeted by dazzling 12-foot ice queens from JD Entertainment which marked the beginning of a special evening. The throng was treated to a performance by violinist DJ Manifesto, who dramatically blends electronic music with his violin.
Key to the celebration were Amanda Abiassi and Neera Patidar of Elevate Management Group; Keith Argueta and Joe Gallegos of JAG Argueta CPA; Brian Brewer, Momentum Title; Charlie and Vanessa Kriegel of WinHill Advisors; and Elliott Gorog of National Prosperity Insurance.

“Every one of us here tonight has a reason to celebrate and to be grateful,” Construction Concepts’ COO Mark Boardman reminded the merrymakers.”However, the purpose of this celebration tonight is also to give back to those in need. It is at the heart of what we do.”
Proceeds from the bountiful raffle and donations went directly to B.I.G. Love Cancer Care.
