· Texas Border Business
Chano’s 33rd Annual Birthday Bash and Christmas Toy Drive is set for December 10, 2026, at Barrel House Kitchen in Edinburg, benefiting migrant children at the McAllen Humanitarian Respite Center. The event, hosted by Judge Omar Maldonado, continues a tradition started by Justice Nora Longoria and Luciano 'Chano' Garza III, who began collecting toys for children in need 33 years ago. Over the years, the initiative has supported various organizations before focusing on the Respite Center. Organizers are encouraging community participation through sponsorships and donations of new, unwrapped toys, with collection boxes available at the venue throughout November and December.
