ADDISON — Stella Jet Experiences’ Doing Good in Dallas gala, held on Dec. 2 in celebration of Giving Tuesday, collected over 10,000 toys and holiday gifts for North Texas children in need. Partnering with The World’s Largest Toy Drive and Trina’s Kids Foundation, the event directly benefited nearly 2,000 children through the Dallas Toy Drive. Hosted inside the Stella Jets Private Hangar, the sold-out evening drew more than 200 guests for a night of philanthropy, entertainment, and community spirit.
The gala, co-hosted by actor Charlie Sheen and media personality Lady Jade, embraced a ‘90s and ‘00s theme, transforming the aviation facility into an upscale celebration. Attendees included Dallas Cowboys players, television personalities Brian Austin Green, Sharna Burgess, and Chanel West Coast, as well as entertainers Twista and Mario. Business leaders and philanthropists joined forces to make the Giving Tuesday event a memorable evening.
“The heart and generosity in the room was as electrifying as the performances,” said Tia Minzoni, president of Stella Jet Brands. Guests enjoyed live performances, a DJ set by DJ Astronaut, and a live auction that featured a $40,000 winning bid for a VIP experience with Charlie Sheen. Proceeds funded Santa’s Mini Mall, an interactive shopping experience where low-income families could select gifts using Santa Bucks, giving children presents while preserving dignity and choice.
The event achieved record-breaking success, providing nearly 2,000 kids with toys while delivering a meaningful experience for families and guests alike. Minzoni praised the collaboration, saying, “Dallas and Hollywood came together and proved that we can move mountains when we all align for a common purpose.”
