Dallas Business Hall of Fame Raises $1.25 million for JA Dallas Students
The 2025 Dallas Business Hall of Fame, benefiting Junior Achievement of Dallas, was an unforgettable evening celebrating business excellence, community impact and the power of education.
On February 22, 2025, we honored three outstanding leaders—Allie Beth Allman, Curtis C. Farmer and Dale Petroskey—for their contributions to Dallas’ business and philanthropic community. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our sponsors and supporters, the event raised $1.25 million to support financial literacy, career readiness and entrepreneurship education for Dallas-area students.
Thank you to everyone who made this year’s event a success! And save the date for next year’s Dallas Business Hall of Fame: March 7, 2026.
