Roger Staubach Donates $10 Million to Support Dallas Cowboys Youth Program

Former Dallas Cowboys quarterback and Hall of Famer, Roger Staubach, has made a generous donation of $10 million to support the Cowboys’ youth programs. The contribution marks a significant commitment to enriching the lives of young people in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, further cementing Staubach’s legacy both on and off the field.

The donation will go toward funding various initiatives within the Dallas Cowboys’ youth outreach programs, which focus on fostering leadership, teamwork, and community engagement through sports. These programs aim to provide opportunities for underprivileged youth, empowering them with life skills and access to sports activities that they may not otherwise have.

“I believe strongly in the power of sports to build character and bring communities together. This donation is my way of giving back to the city of Dallas and the Cowboys’ fans who supported me throughout my career,” Staubach said in a statement.

The donation will primarily be used to enhance existing programs that focus on youth development, education, and physical fitness. Some of the funds will be allocated to expanding the Cowboys’ “Fellowship of Christian Athletes” programs and youth camps that have been operating for years, offering young athletes the chance to improve their athletic skills while learning about discipline and teamwork.

Staubach’s donation highlights his continued involvement with the Dallas Cowboys, even after retiring from football. Since his playing days, Staubach has remained a respected figure in the Dallas community, both as a businessman and philanthropist. His contributions to local charities and community development initiatives are well known, and this latest gift underscores his passion for shaping the future of youth through sports.

The $10 million donation is expected to have a lasting impact, providing countless young individuals the chance to succeed both in athletics and in life. The Dallas Cowboys organization expressed its gratitude to Staubach, with team owner Jerry Jones stating, “Roger’s generosity will help shape the future of many young people, and his legacy continues to inspire us all.”
