WHY THIS NIGHT MATTERS

​

The Joy Ball isn’t just a party — it’s a purpose-driven celebration.

Proceeds from this event support mental health initiatives through I’m Changing the Narrative, helping individuals and families access resources, healing, and hope.

​

When you attend, you’re not just buying a ticket, you’re helping someone believe life can get better.

 

 

Together, We Put Tools Into the Hands That Need Them Most​

​

Too often, schools, families, and individuals can’t afford the resources that could change everything. Your presence and generosity at the Joy Ball ensures that no one fights their battles alone.

​

Every dollar fuels:

​

  • Counseling scholarships for people in crisis.

  • Mental health programming for schools and communities who otherwise couldn’t afford it.

  • Resources like the Mental Health Battle Plan and I’ve Never Met a Happy Bully, workshops, speakers at schools and in the community & putting practical tools directly into the hands of those who need them.

What to Expect:

​

  • ​A beautifully curated space filled with laughter, music, dancing, and life-giving conversations.

  • An opportunity to release what’s weighing you down, and step fully into joy and purpose.

  • Time to celebrate your wins, your growth, and the community gathering around you.

Silent Auction: Bid With Purpose

​

The Joy Ball wouldn’t be complete without a silent auction that's packed with experiences and treasures you won’t want to miss! Every item you bid on does more than bring joy home with you—it fuels the mission.

​

Every winning bid supports counseling scholarships, mental health programming for schools, and resources that change lives. It’s impact wrapped in excitement. Bid boldly, knowing that every dollar brings hope to someone who needs it most.

​

Because of you:

​

  • A mother in crisis can sit down with a counselor and begin to heal.
     

  • A teenager in a school assembly can learn tools to battle bullying and depression instead of carrying it alone.
     

  • An entire school can receive programming that breaks the stigma around mental health and replaces it with conversations that heal.
     

  • A community leader can walk away with a Mental Health Battle Plan that saves lives.
     

Your dollars aren’t just donations—they’re lifelines. They turn pain into purpose, despair into hope, and silence into powerful voices that change the narrative.

​

When you give, you’re not just funding programs. You’re helping someone’s son, someone’s daughter, someone’s friend. You’re saying: You matter. You’re not alone. There is joy and healing ahead.
