The event marked a significant milestone for the foundation as it integrated its Waymon Webster Scholarship Program into the holiday drive for the first time. Honoring the Webster family's HBCU legacy, the scholarship program has awarded over $1 million to more than 100 graduating seniors, reinforcing its commitment to empowering future leaders. Hosted on TSU's campus, the Cactus Jack Foundation and the Houston Food Bank distributed more than 2,000 toys and bikes and 1,000 bags of food to local families. Event-goers received 200 Nike Cactus Jack sneakers and exclusive merchandise from Cactus Jack Nike, Fanatics, Houston Astros, and Space Village stations.

Children had a great time at a magical Winter Wonderland-themed outdoor inflatable park, which featured a giant bounce house and a special visit from Santa Claus. To enhance the festivities, the Houston Astros, a longtime partner, set up a station where attendees could sign up for Scott's TXRX Lab and learn about the Waymon Webster Scholarship Program, providing valuable information for future HBCU scholars.
