We stand with our members, employees, supporters and the children and families we serve who are working peacefully to remove the barriers that the Black community continues to face. We also value and support the overwhelming majority of police who are committed to protecting and serving our community in a just and equitable manner.
The most meaningful action we can take as a transformational organization is to continue to be a force of genuine service — striving to create a better community where people are judged solely by the content of their character. This embodies the heart of the Salesmanship Club of Dallas. We know there is more work to be done by us and by others, and we are committed. We strive to provide an environment that promotes inclusion and values equity for all, where everyone can live and serve side by side with compassion and dignity.
