Houston Celebrates Big Wins at Texas Young Republican Convention!
This past weekend, the Houston Young Republicans made a significant impact at the 2024 Texas Young Republican Federation (TYRF) Convention, bringing home multiple prestigious awards that highlight the hard work and dedication of our team.
We're incredibly proud to have been named Large Club of the Year—a testament to the strength and growth of our organization. This award reflects the passion, commitment, and unity of our members, all of whom have played a vital role in making HYR a leading force in Texas.
In addition to this top honor, we were also recognized with the Outstanding Social Media award. Our dynamic online presence has been key to engaging our community, sharing important content, and fostering a strong conservative network across Houston and beyond.
And we’re thrilled to celebrate our Communications Director, Sam Somogye, who was awarded Event Fundraiser of the Year for his outstanding work organizing our event with the Consul General of Israel. This event was not only a financial success but also provided a unique opportunity for dialogue and connection within our community.
These awards are a collective achievement, and we couldn’t have done it without the support and dedication of each of you. As we look ahead, we’re excited to continue building on this momentum and making a difference in the upcoming election season.
