Dallas – Dallas Mavericks CEO Cynt Marshall was honored Friday afternoon by the Genesis Women’s Shelter with the 2019 Jane Doe Award, which recognizes her “extraordinary commitment to standing alongside women and their children throughout their journey to an abuse-free life.” She joined past recipients including Legal Aid of Northwest Texas, the Junior League of Dallas and The Dallas Morning News.
Marshall received her award at the 26th Genesis Annual Luncheon featuring keynote speaker Terry Crews. She chronicled a childhood of catastrophic difficulties after growing up with an abusive father. She’s since turned her tragedy into triumph, using her voice as a beacon of hope across the NBA, Dallas Mavericks organization and the North Texas community.
