The images have been staggering – lines of cars stretching for miles as people wait for hours to collect donated meals. We have seen them over and over in recent weeks, one warning sign among many that a global pandemic has severe implications for our neighbors trying to remain safe and healthy – and hoping not to go hungry while doing so.

This is why Heritage Auctions, the world’s largest collectibles auction house, is proud to partner with the hometown pro sports teams and some of sport’s biggest names and greatest players for the “DFW Sports Superstars Are In This Together Charity Auction Benefitting the North Texas Food Bank.”

The Dallas Cowboys, Dallas Mavericks, Texas Rangers, Dallas Stars and FC Dallas have each generously donated items for this auction to fill the North Texas Food Bank’s coffers during this difficult and desperate moment.

Bidding opens April 29 at HA.com and runs through May 13 – culminating with a very special live auction at 8 p.m. Dallas time. That night we will all gather around the computer to raise money for the North Texas Food Bank when it needs our help the most.

Among the one-of-a-kind items available during this special auction include a painted diagram of the legendary “Hail Mary” play – created and signed by none other than its mastermind, Hall of Fame Cowboys quarterback Roger Staubach. His partner on that play, receiver Drew Pearson, has also signed the piece. There will never be another keepsake like this one.

FC Dallas is also offering a Player for a Day experience, which includes signing a real first-team contract, a video about the signing, an actual contract and a full FC Dallas kit. The winner will also have the opportunity to train with the FC Dallas first team during an upcoming training session. That will happen later, but a team-signed ball is yours today.

And the Stars are offering four plaza level tickets and a post-game meet-and-greet during the 2020-2021 season.

There are also signed jerseys, balls, helmets and photos from local sports greats, including Troy Aikman, Dirk Nowitzki, Michael Irvin, Dak Prescott, Kristaps Porzingas, Pudge Rodriguez, Ezekiel Elliott, Joe Pavelski, Jerry Jones – to name but a few.

Everyone was eager to help when they heard that the North Texas Food Bank distributed 6 million pounds of food between March 15-April 15 – which is 1.5 million more than during the previous two months. More than 13,000 families have been served at the mobile pantries in just the past few weeks – with as many as 70 percent of those in need clients who has never before sought help.

These athletes have done their part by participating in Heritage’s In This Together Charity Auction. Now it’s our chance to do yours by going to HA.com/inthistogether between now and May 13, when the live auction begins at 8 p.m. Central Standard Time. We’ll see you there. Happy bidding.
