Dear Neighbors,
What a wonderful place BallenIsles is to call home! We are surrounded by kindness and generosity, and it's all thanks to your amazing support. BallenIsles truly shines as a caring community. Philanthropy is everywhere, and our Foundation has once again achieved a record-breaking fundraising year due to the overwhelming support from you, our residents, and our Corporate Sponsors.
We are guided by three pillars of philanthropy: Fundraising, Grant Making, and Community Service.
- Fundraising: We are a 100% volunteer organization, allowing us to allocate 97% of received funds to grants.
- Grant Making: This year, we awarded $1,475,000 in grants.
- Community Service: Our service arm enables residents to make a tangible difference through hands-on volunteer work.
Your unwavering commitment to these initiatives continues to make a significant difference in our community and beyond. As we look forward to another exciting year, let us continue to support and uplift one another, strengthening the bonds that make BallenIsles such a special place. Together, we can achieve even greater success and create lasting impacts.
Always remember, "No act of kindness or philanthropy, no matter how small, is ever wasted."
Thank you for your dedication and generosity!
