The Partner Roundtable with other grantees of the MrBallen Foundation was the highlight of my day. In just one short year since their founding, they've given away more than $750,000, making a huge difference in the lives of crime survivors and their loved ones. Not only that, they're just awesome to work with--always thinking about how they can help their partners make a bigger impact. https://lnkd.in/ga5n5mTU

Our captivating custom buildout at the 49th NOVA Annual Training Event was more than just an exhibit – it was an immersive experience that brought our Foundation’s purpose and story to life. As attendees strolled through, they became part of our story, discovering how the MrBallen Foundation is making a difference in the lives of many affected by heinous crimes. We shared the inspiring stories of eight of our remarkable partners, showcasing their missions and how we got to play a part in propelling their impactful work forward through Honor Grants. Guided by our multi-stage walkthrough, visitors delved into the essence of @mrballen and his unwavering dedication to aiding those affected by violent crimes. The Foundation's commitment shone brightly as we proudly shared our contribution of nearly $750,000 in the past year alone. But it wasn't just about numbers – it was about connecting. Non-profit leaders were empowered to explore avenues for collaboration as they learned about the opportunity to engage with our team and apply for Honor Grants. At the crossroads of compassion and impact, our buildout experience left an indelible mark, inspiring all to join hands in fostering change. Thank you to everyone who came by! #nova49 John Allen aka “MrBallen” Ballen Studios #honoringvictims #supportingfamilies
