A North Texas nonprofit wants to raise money to continue supporting vulnerable communities

Legendary Dallas Cowboys Ed “Too Tall” Jones and Billy Joe Dupree will take the green as co-chairs of the Chris Howell Foundation’s inaugural Celebrity Golf Tournament, to be held on Thursday, September 19, 2024, at Tangle Ridge Golf Course in Grand Prairie, Texas.

This highly anticipated event brings together NFL icons, golf enthusiasts and community supporters to raise funds for the Chris Howell Foundation (CHF) mission to help families in need throughout North Texas.

Founded by Chris Howell, a local radio host, and his wife Dominique Bryant-Howell, the Chris Howell Foundation has been instrumental in eliminating disparities in health, well-being and financial literacy in underserved communities since its inception in 2016.

Over the past few years, CHF has distributed more than 3 million pounds of food to over 101,000 families in North Texas, helping to alleviate food insecurity in areas hardest hit by the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to providing food, the foundation also offers financial literacy programs, men’s empowerment initiatives, and health and wellness screenings to help families become self-sufficient.

“Without proper nutrition, people cannot be healthy or well,” said Dominique Bryant-Howell, executive director of the Chris Howell Foundation. “Our food insecurity program has been a lifeline for many families. The funds raised through this tournament will allow us to expand our efforts and continue to provide vital services to even more people in need.”

The tournament promises an exciting day of golf with NFL alumni and legends like Billy Joe Dupree and Ed “Too Tall” Jones. There will also be an awards lunch, swag bags and plenty of opportunities to mingle with local sports heroes. Whether as a player or spectator, participants will be part of a community-focused effort that gives back to those who need it most.

“This event is about more than just golf,” said Ed “Too Tall” Jones. “It’s about coming together as a community to help families across North Texas succeed.”

“We invite everyone to come and support this great cause,” added Billy Joe Dupree. “Your participation will have a direct impact on the lives of thousands of families who depend on the Chris Howell Foundation’s programs.”

The Chris Howell Foundation is a registered 501(c)(3) organization and all funds raised go directly to support its programs, including its expanded efforts through the Southern Dallas Economic Opportunity Center (SDEOC). Through the SDEOC, CHF builds warehouse space for food storage and distribution, ensuring reliable access to nutritious meals for more than 15,000 individuals and families annually.
