JD Ballard Teen Health Fund

Donation protected
Despite support and love from wonderful friends, family, doctors, and community, John David Ballard lost his two-year battle against depression.

He received excellent care, but the family’s experience showed them the immense need for more mental health care capacity for children and teens in this community—so that families need not wait for care or bear the expenses of traveling to find care.  His Mother Cathy Pulley Ballard and his Father John T. Ballard would like to address this need. 

The family will channel funds raised to address the mental health needs of children and adolescents in the valley area.

Please Note: The J.D. Ballard Teen Health Fund has a new, permanent home! All of your generous donations have been transferred to a new fund set up at the not-for-profit Community Foundation of the Northern Shenandoah Valley (CFNSV).
