Mustangs 'Go Gold' in Support of Classmate, Gates Mims.

The Mustangs didn’t just meet the goal—they crushed it. In just three minutes, they raised an amazing $10,000, well beyond what was expected. That money will go toward granting a wish for a child facing serious health challenges, making the night about much more than football.

The stands were filled with gold ribbons and “Gator Strong” t-shirts, as students and families showed up in full support of their classmate. The atmosphere was electric, with everyone coming together to help make a difference. 

This event wasn’t just a fundraiser—it was a true reminder of how close-knit and caring the Houston High family is. The Mustangs showed that when one of their own needs help, they’re all in.

Friday night’s success was more than just numbers; it was a heartwarming display of kindness and unity that made everyone proud to be part of the Houston High family.
