2021 Golf Tournament
The 2021 AHO Charity Golf Tournament was a huge success, and our largest event ever!
Thirteen teams of golfers participated, several businesses donated, and a silent auction was held, all which aided the goal of boosting the AHO Scholarship program.
The AHO Scholarship program benefits deserving Houston area students in need of a financial support to pursue their educational goals.
AHO donates thousands in scholarships each year and the Charity Golf Tournament is our largest yearly fundraiser.

2015 Spring Newsletter
Aggies Helping Others Spring 2015 Update
Last April, Aggies Helping Others had its first fundraising event of 2015. The event was a great success helping the foundation by raising money which will defray the foundation’s start-up costs. The Aggies Helping Others Board of Directors wishes to thank all those who participated, the generous donors, and corporate sponsors.
Aggies Helping Others recently launched the foundation’s website: www.aggieshelpingothers.org. Please visit our site and help support the Aggies Helping Others foundation, as your donations support the foundation’s charitable endeavors.
A little more about Aggies Helping Others…in 2010, a group of Texas A&M Executive MBA class XII students decided to organize a food drive for the Houston Food Bank. A short five years later, the food drive has grown exponentially (from ~500 lb. donated in 2010 to over 40,000 lb. donated in 2014), but those same Texas A&M former students have launched this non-profit foundation, Aggies Helping Others.
In the true spirit of Texas A&M’s selfless service, the foundation strives to support the health and well-being of everyone in need, through donations, events, and special programs. Aggies Helping Others supports individuals and the community at large.
