About the Event

The LOVE BEYOND GALA is a charity dinner, featuring guest speaker Danny White, former quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys.  

LOVE BEYOND is an invitation to join The Salvation Army in helping suffering humanity. It’s a reminder to love others beyond all else.

At The Salvation Army, we are here to help our neighbors in need. Our focus year-round is to help alleviate food insecurity, utility burdens, and housing instability. Our goal is not only to respond to the immediate crisis – such as hunger and homelessness – but to provide supportive services to vulnerable populations characterized by unemployment and underemployment to plan their way forward to success and self-sufficiency.

This mission is made possible because of our generous supporters, and this event is an opportunity to highlight The Salvation Army's impact in the community as well as raise valuable financial support for the work ahead.

Danny White

Former Quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys
1976 - 1988

Danny White was born February 9, 1952 in Mesa, Arizona. A graduate of Mesa Westwood High School, White had a stellar career as a Quarterback and Punter at Arizona State University where he was an All-American in 1973. Throughout his career as a player at Arizona State University, White set seven NCAA passing records. In 1973 his passing and running placed him second in the Nation in total offense. Sports Illustrated named White as the second-highest rated Quarterback of all time behind only Steve Young. The National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame honored White in 1997 as the first player inductee ever from ASU and the State of Arizona.

After 2 years with the Memphis Southmen of the World Football League, White joined the Dallas Cowboys and the NFL. White’s leadership skills as a Quarterback were evident when he broke the Dallas Cowboys single-season passing record (29 TD’s) in his first year as a starter (1980). The Cowboys went to the playoffs 5 times and won the NFC East title three times in White’s 6 years as a starter. He ended his career as the Cowboys most accurate passer, setting team single-season records for completions (334) and touchdown passes (29). He still holds 8 Cowboys records and holds the record for the most TD passes thrown in Texas Stadium. Tom Landry, the legendary Head Coach of the Cowboys said, “Danny White was probably as fine a winner as we have had in football.”

After retiring as a player, White, a living legend of football in Arizona, served as the first Head Coach and General Manager of the Arizona Rattlers until 2004. In 13 seasons White led the Rattlers to Arena Bowl berths in 1994, 1997, 2002, 2003, and 2004 emerging as Arena Bowl Champions in 1994 and 1997. White finished his career with the Rattlers with an overall record of 141-65 and became an inductee into the Arena Football Hall of Fame in 2002.

In addition to the AFL Hall of Fame and the NCAA Hall of Fame, White has been inducted into the Mesa Arizona Sports Hall of Fame, the State of Arizona Sports Hall of Fame and the Arizona State University Hall of Fame where his jersey number 11 was retired. White was also named the Arizona Athlete of the Century by the Arizona Republic in 2000.

After retiring from the game, White provided analyst commentary for the Fox Sports Pac-10 Game of the Week and traveled around the country as an inspirational public speaker. He currently is the analyst for Compass Media broadcasting all Dallas Cowboy games over their national syndicated network and in 2019 joined KTVT CBS 11 as co-host of Cowboys Gameday.

Danny and his wife Jane reside in Arizona where they stay involved with many community activities and charities.
