Country Music Star Kane Brown Wows Crowd at Dak Prescott Fundraiser

Hosted by Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott, the Faith Fight Finish Foundation brought together community leaders, corporate partners, and advocates in support of the Foundation’s mission to empower individuals, families, and communities to find strength through adversity.

The program, held at the Thompson on July 17, was moderated by Kaylee Hartung, NFL sideline reporter and correspondent for NBC’s Today Show.

Guests heard stories highlighting the Foundation’s impact across its four pillars: colon cancer research, mental health awareness and suicide prevention, bridging the gap between law enforcement, youth and the communities they serve, and offering assistance to those facing life-challenging hardships.

The evening featured a live performance by multi-platinum, award-winning, country music superstar Kane Brown. 

The Faith Fight Finish Foundation was established as a tribute to Dak’s Mom, Peggy, who lost her battle with colon cancer in 2013. The Foundation’s work also honors Dak’s brother, Jace, who was lost to suicide in 2020.

The 2026 gala raised $1.5 million to further the Foundation’s mission and expand its impact.
