After a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic, the Dallas Cowboys aimed for the fences in early June with the Reliant Home Run Derby benefiting The Salvation Army. Thousands of fans cheered on the Cowboys at Riders Field in Frisco, Texas, and the ninth annual charity competition resulted in Reliant donating $135,000 to 22 nonprofit organizations, the largest amount in the event’s history.
The Reliant Home Run Derby, which was free and open to the public, gave fans a chance to see some of their favorite players in action, raising a total of $81,000 for The Salvation Army.
“The Salvation Army of North Texas is incredibly grateful for the generosity and partnership of Reliant and the Dallas Cowboys,” said Major Todd Hawks, area commander for The Salvation Army. “The Home Run Derby is such a fun way to engage the community to support our mission. The funds received will be put to immediate use serving those experiencing poverty, addiction, and homelessness in North Texas.”
