Capital One Bank was the presenting sponsor for the 2014 Dallas Can Academies' Golf Classic held at the Cowboys Golf Club in Grapevine, Texas.  The tournament began with a shotgun start in a four-person scramble, 18-hole tournament on a picture perfect day.  Prizes were give for longest drive, closest to the pin, hole-in-one, a putting contest and more.

The proceeds from the annual fundraiser support the at-risk students of the five Dallas Can Academy campuses while they earn their high school diplomas.  The nonprofit organization believes providing the tools needed outside the classroom also advances their academic performance and is critical to breaking the cycle of intergenerational poverty and illiteracy.  The charter schools are tuition-free, open enrollment, public high schools of choice and are part of Texans Can Academies, which has eleven high schools across the state.  Since 1987, more than 16,100 students have graduated from Texans Can Academies.
