The couple were joined by their three children — Levi, 15, Vida, 14, and Livingston, 11 — as the family attended the 12th annual Mack, Jack & McConaughey Gala in Austin, Texas on April 25.
Levi and Livingston dressed smartly in black suits, with their dad, 54, opting for a navy suit and white shirt, while Vida looked just like her model mom, 41, in a pale pink strappy gown. Meanwhile, Alves sported a black off-the-shoulder dress for the occasion featuring sequins on the bodice.
Mack, Jack & McConaughey (MJ&M) is the joint fundraising effort of the actor, football coach Mack Brown and country musician Jack Ingram.
According to the organization’s website, the Gala is their biggest fundraising night and is part of a two-day event offering music, golf and fashion “benefiting select non-profit organizations that each reflect the MJ&M goal to empower kids.”

McConaughey and Alves last made a red carpet appearance with their kids in December 2021 when they attended the Los Angeles premiere of Sing 2, which saw McConaughey return as beloved koala Buster Moon.
Earlier this month, the Dallas Buyers Club star told PEOPLE how much his children loved him being a part of the animated movie franchise.

"They thought it was really cool," he said. "I remember sitting at the premiere with them listening and going, 'Hey, that sounds like ...' and they had that moment where they look at the screen and audio, and then look at me sitting next to them and do the math. That was really cool to them, and that was something I did for them — and the kid in all of us."
McConaughey also reflected on how being a dad has improved his skills as a performer.
"Having children I know has made me a better artist and has made me a better actor, because kids see things for the first time all the time. Their questions are innocent," he said. "I become a better storyteller because I have kids, meaning, I come home from work on something like True Detective, and my 4-year-old kid goes, 'What'd you do today?' I cannot tell them what the show's really about, it's not age-appropriate. So I have to go into a parable for them."

"And so I had to become a better storyteller to tell my kids about a good guy, a bad guy and a monster in this, to tell them the parable of the story I was in," McConaughey continued.
