Frank Ballard has been a beloved part of the Five Points community for many years. As a restaurant owner for more than 29 years, Frank has gone above and beyond for friends, customers, and neighbors alike. Alongside his wife, Marget Ballard, Frank has built more than a business. He has helped create memories for families, supported community fundraisers, and shown up time and again for others. Frank has also been a dedicated supporter of Veterans organizations across the state and a friend to so many causes, including the long-standing Raleigh Garden Club.

Recently, Frank was in a significant accident at his home and suffered a life-changing spinal cord injury. This devastating event has changed daily life for Frank and Marget in an instant, and Frank will now need round-the-clock care. The funds raised will go toward medical bills, long-term care, and necessary medical equipment, including specialized wheelchairs designed for spinal injuries. After all the years Frank has spent helping others, he now needs a little help from his friends. Please consider supporting Frank and Marget during this incredibly difficult time. Every donation, share, and kind word will help make the next few years a little easier for a family that has given so much to their community.
