Our Impact
Oaks Christian School
The Dallas family co-founded Oaks Christian School, a premier private Christian School in Thousand Oaks, CA. Bill and Bev wanted their children to have a well-rounded education that balanced Academics, Arts and Athletics with their Spiritual Life. Since founding the school, Bill has served on the Board of Directors and for the past 10 years, he served as Chairman of the Board. He is currently Chairman Emeritus. Bev was the Head Cheer/STUNT Coach for 16 years. Bill and Bev have been deeply involved in the mission and vision of Oaks Christian School.
“Bill and Bev are always looking for ways to help others. It has been a real pleasure to work with them over the years, helping them grow their wealth and pursue their philanthropic goals”

Dallas/Hamilton Entrepreneurial Center
In 2016, Bill Dallas (BGSU Alumni) and Scott Hamilton (Bowling Green native) donated $3M to fund a center for Entrepreneurial leadership at Bowling Green State University. This was the second-largest gift ever received by the university. Today, the entrepreneurship program is ranked in the top 3% of universities in the country and has invested more than $600K into student businesses.
Bank of America Performing Arts Center
In 1998, Bill and Bev Dallas gifted a $1.5 M dollar gift to the Bank of America Performing Arts Center. This gift was driven by their passion for the arts and the desire to have culture available for their children and their community. Bev founded the Angels of the Alliance, the fundraising arm of the Civic Arts Plaza. In the words of Bev Dallas: “Every child deserves a balanced upbringing. Only the arts can give us this sense of completeness.
