Over the years, many Texas high schools have provided unique opportunities for their student athletes to experience special venues while pursuing their collegiate athletic and academic dreams. While these opportunities have been historically reserved for larger schools, the The Lewis Family Foundation - Dallas is proud to create a unique event that allows smaller schools to showcase their football and cheer programs, enhance their community outreach and elevate the student athlete high school experience.

Science has lost its way, and it’s been a story decades in the making. The COVID-19 pandemic brought this detour into sharp focus, accelerating the credibility gap and contributing to a rising loss of public trust in science. Liberty-oriented donors have been tempted to retreat from giving in the areas of medicine and science, but wise philanthropists have a key role to play in bringing truth back to science.
