You just thought Emmitt Smith had put away his running shoes. Nope, the Dallas Cowboys Hall of Famer/”Dancing With The Stars” champ has been busier than “The Avengers” the past few days. Here’s a brief rundown on his presence for the nonprofits world:
- THURSDAY NIGHT — Celebrity guest for posing for photos with Troy Aikman and guests at the Todd Wagner Foundation Gala at Cowboys Stadium.
- FRIDAY NIGHT — Co-hosted with wife Pat the reunion of the 1992 Dallas Cowboys at the Stonebriar Westin benefiting the Pat and Emmitt Smith Foundation
- MONDAY LUNCH — He was the celebrity guest for the TACA auction item won by RBC Wealth Management’s for a behind-the-scenes tour of Cowboys Stadium (aka “the house that Jerry built”) with RBC Chairman John Taft, RBC Director/TACA Chairman Andy Teller and a bus load of RBC friends and associates.
- MONDAY NIGHT — He and Pat co-hosted First Lady Michelle Obama at a very private party at their home.
- TUESDAY — Let’s hope he’s gonna take the day off because it’s his birthday. Happy b-day, Mr. Smith.















I am VP Resource Development of Assistance League of Greater Collin County. Our annual fundraiser will be held Saturday, November 3, 2012 at Courtyard Marriott/Allen.
We have many outstanding programs, our largest being Operation School Bell. This past year we clothed 1300 children in Greater Collin County school districts. We are a smaller chapter and have no paid staff. Assistance League is a national organization. I want to know if we can send additional information and apply for a sponsorship or grant.
Thanks for your time.
