“Receiving a Ballard Grant allowed me to turn my classroom learning into a life-changing labor of love with admirable organizations and people I have developed lasting relationships with. This experience completely transformed my college journey, not only shaping my understanding of social impact but also setting me on my own path toward lifelong learning and service. I will forever be grateful to the generous donors of the Ballard Center who made this possible for me!”
