2010 OUT & ABOUT 500: ALL-STARS
All-Star Stars: Donna Stockton-Hicks and Steve Hicks,
If Democrats control Austin, and Republicans control Texas, the Hickses bridge the social gap. Their influence starts with CapStar Partners, Andrew Harper Travel, Harden Healthcare and other businesses. They open their classy Pemberton home to groups such as Austin Recovery, SafePlace, Family Eldercare, Center for Child Protection, Women’s Fund of Central Texas and, especially, the tiny Rise School of Austin, for which the Hickses hope to raise $3 million this year.Carol and Chris Adams.
