Lily Pad Ha n - Ballantyne Ball

THIRD ANNUAL
INTRODUCING OUR
2017 BENEFICIARY
Lily Pad Haven
2017
Saturday, February 11
Lily Pad Haven opened housing to their first
guest in 2012. With North Carolina being
ranked as a top 10 state for human trafficking
(and Charlotte being one of the top
destination), Lily Pad Haven saw an imminent
need to provide housing and coordinate
transitional services for victims of Human
Trafficking. Much like the lily pad, Lily Pad
Haven provides safety, shelter, and respite for
their guests who have had many challenging
and painful events in their lives. With the
ability to provide a loving and secure
environment, guests are able to navigate their
way through the dark water and lead to the
light where their past can be healed, hope can
be restored, and they can be inspired to live
fruitful and productive lives in our community.
Your support of Ballantyne Ball will assist us
in reaching our goal of donating $100,000 to
Lily Pad Haven to help bring the resources
they so desperately need to help support
victims and continue educating and
advocating our community on the stark
reality of human trafficking.
