HOUSTON -- Recent searches for missing Houstonians has put a financial drain on Texas EquuSearch, so a fundraiser will be held Wednesday night, KPRC Local 2 reported.

The public is invited to attend the event at 6:30 p.m. at Pappasito's Cantina, located at 10409 Katy Freeway. Meal tickets will be sold for $15 each, with the proceeds going to EquuSearch.

The non-profit organization has been involved in several long-range searches recently. Volunteers have been looking for missing UH student Nate Hendrickson, 24, since he disappeared on Nov. 30.

Hendrickson's car was found Saturday at West Oaks Mall. Police said there were no signs of foul play.

Since then, crews have been searching nearby George Bush Park, but have not found any clues.

On Wednesday, searchers planned to use sonar equipment in a lake at the park.
