Honorary Chairs: Mary and Carl Ice, Representative David Cook, Judy Rupay
The Salvation Army of North Texas is again teaming up with the Dallas Cowboys for the annual Inspiring Hope Luncheon on September 27 at AT&T Stadium to help support the ongoing needs of those combatting poverty, addiction, and homelessness in Tarrant County.
Honorary Chairs Mary and Carl Ice, Representative David Cook, and Judy Rupay will welcome DeMarcus Ware, former defensive end and outside linebacker for the Dallas Cowboys and Denver Broncos, as the VIP guest and keynote speaker at this year’s event. Widely regarded as one of the greatest defensive players in NFL history, Ware is a 2023 Hall of Fame Inductee and Super Bowl Champion who earned a reputation of being one of the best to play in his position.
Off the field, Ware is active in giving back to his community, with a special focus on kids, hunger, and homelessness. He additionally participates in TV and broadcast opportunities and motivational speaking engagements. At the luncheon, he will share his personal journey fighting an uphill battle to get to the top of his game — and the motivation to get you to the top of yours.
As one of The Salvation Army of North Texas’ signature fundraising events, the Inspiring Hope Luncheon raises vital funds to support Corps Community Centers and programs in the area, such as the Family Life Center, J.E. & L.E. Mabee Social Service Center, and Northside Corps Community Center. It also benefits the Gene and Jerry Jones Family North Texas Youth Education Town (YET), which gives young people the tools they need to overcome adversity and achieve their full potential and is this year celebrating its 10th anniversary in operation.
“We are honored to gather again for this important fundraising event with the help of our friends at the Dallas Cowboys. The Inspiring Hope Luncheon is critical for The Salvation Army of North Texas to raise awareness of the needs facing our most vulnerable neighbors in Tarrant County. We encourage North Texans to join us at AT&T Stadium in September or make a donation online to make a difference in your community.” — Major Paul McFarland, Area Commander of The Salvation Army of North Texas
