Purple Heart Project

The Purple Heart Project recognizes, honors and celebrates those who have earned the Purple Heart through their brave and selfless acts of service. Hosted by “Chef Mark” Sierra, The Project held its fifth annual gala at The Kendall Inn Saturday, to honor nine Purple Heart recipients and one Gold Star Family.

“When I first started this thing, we had maybe 30, 40 people at Compadres (Hill Country Cocina, Sierra’s restaurant). Over the years, it has grown and look at us tonight,” Sierra said.
