The West Valley Hospital Foundation’s 15th annual Moonlight and Vines Gala is scheduled for Friday, Aug. 22, at the Nesmith Readiness Center, located at 12830 Westview Drive in Dallas. 

The event includes a gourmet dinner, dancing and a silent auction. Proceeds from the event will be used to support scholarships for students pursuing healthcare careers, as well as for West Valley Hospital services such as the Connections Van which provides rides to and from the hospital for patients in need of transportation.
