| Dave and Leigh Anne Clark to Chair Annual Fundraiser Alongside Celebrity Chairs Troy Aikman and Dak Prescott DALLAS –Children’s Cancer Fund will host its 37th Annual Fashion Show & Gala on Friday, April 9, 2027, at the Hilton Anatole Dallas. The annual event will bring together supporters, community leaders and special guests to raise critical funds for children battling cancer. This year’s event will be led by Gala Chairs Dave and Leigh Anne Clark, alongside longtime Celebrity Chairs Troy Aikman and Dak Prescott. The annual Fashion Show & Gala is Children’s Cancer Fund’s largest signature fundraising event, supporting pediatric cancer research and treatment programs at Children’s Health and UT Southwestern. At the heart of the evening, pediatric cancer patients will take center stage during the signature fashion show, walking the runway alongside celebrity escorts in a celebration of their courage and resilience. “We are blown away every year by the strength and optimism of these children and their families,” said Dave and Leigh Anne Clark. “It is an honor to play a role in this year’s event.” “The Fashion Show & Gala is such a special night because it gives our children the opportunity to take center stage and be celebrated for the incredible courage they show every day,” said Children’s Cancer Fund Chief Executive Officer Jennifer Arthur. “With Dave and Leigh Anne leading this year’s event alongside Troy and Dak, we’re looking forward to another meaningful evening that helps us continue advancing research, treatment and support for children and families facing pediatric cancer.” Aikman and Prescott will once again lend their support to the event, continuing a longstanding tradition of Dallas Cowboys quarterbacks championing Children’s Cancer Fund and helping bring greater awareness to its mission. “I’m proud to be back and continue showing up for these kids and their families,” said Dak Prescott. “What they’re fighting through every day puts everything into perspective. If we can use our platform to support them, bring more attention to the fight against childhood cancer and help make a difference, that’s what this is all about.” “These kids are what keep me coming back year after year,” said Troy Aikman. “Their strength is incredible, and I’m proud to continue supporting Children’s Cancer Fund and the work they’re doing for children and families across North Texas.” Last year’s Fashion Show & Gala raised a record-breaking $4 million, marking a significant milestone in Children’s Cancer Fund’s ongoing efforts to support children and families impacted by pediatric cancer. “Last year’s record-breaking support speaks volumes about the generosity of this community and the impact Children’s Cancer Fund continues to make,” said Dave and Leigh Anne Clark. “We’re honored to build on that momentum and help make this year’s Gala another meaningful night for the children and families at the heart of this mission.” The 37th Annual Children’s Cancer Fund Fashion Show & Gala will take place Friday, April 9, 2027, from 6-9 PM at the Hilton Anatole Dallas. Tables are available for $10,000, with proceeds benefiting Children’s Health and UT Southwestern. |
