“The Mavericks are more than a sports franchise for Dallas,” Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson said. “The organization is part of the fabric of the city.”
The Mavs have supported numerous back-to-school community events during the last few weeks, including the 24th annual Dallas Mayor’s Back to School Fair that took place August 20-21 at Fair Park.
The annual event serves as a one-stop-shop for financially insecure families to receive plenty of necessary supplies and resources to give children an equal chance to succeed in the classroom. Mavs Champ was on hand to greet the thousands of families that walked to the event and lined up in cars to receive necessary supplies and resources in preparation for the upcoming school year.
