Out & About: Mavs Ball
The eighth-annual Mavs Ball March 3 raised a record $1.85 million for the Mavs Foundation.
Nearly 900 people attended the disco-themed event at the Omni Hotel, which included all the players, coaches, CEO Cynt Marshall, owner Mark Cuban, and more, dinner, auctions, and entertainment by Kool & the Gang.
The Mavs Ball is the premier fundraiser for the Mavs Foundation, which provides grants to organizations serving women, children and families in need.
“Everybody who’s coming tonight – they’re coming to make a difference, to raise money for the Mavs Foundation,” Marshall said.
Cuban said the Mavs Ball is a welcome break from the court to support the community.
“There’s so much stress during the game, so much going on – now we just get to have fun, see everybody smile,” Cuban said.
