Our 2026 Roanoke Annual Celebration was an opportunity to reflect on the impact we've made together and recognize the people whose generosity, partnership, and commitment continue to strengthen our communities. We were honored to gather with the donors, nonprofit leaders, professional advisors, board members, and supporters who make our work possible.

This year's theme, Building What Matters, reminds us that our greatest achievements aren't measured by numbers alone, but by the lives touched, opportunities created, and communities strengthened through philanthropy.

A special thank you Roanoke Country Club for hosting a wonderful evening, Tom Floyd Trio for providing the entertainment, About Faces Entertainment for bringing smiles and laughter through their caricatures, and Kenny Webster Photo's for capturing these special moments.

We are also grateful to our grantee speakers, Bethny Barrett of The Grove on Patterson and Angie Leonard of Beyond Boundaries, for highlighting the transformative work their organizations are leading and the positive impact it continues to have throughout our region.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and to all who help make this work possible. Together, we are helping nonprofits expand their impact, creating opportunities for students, supporting charitable legacies, and strengthening communities across our region.

What an incredible evening celebrating the people who help make our communities stronger.

Our 2026 Annual Celebration brought together donors, nonprofit partners, professional advisors, Advisory Board members, and friends of the Foundation to reflect on a year of meaningful impact and to celebrate what we can accomplish together through philanthropy.

As we shared in this year's theme, Building What Matters, the true measure of our success isn't found in numbers alone. It's found in the lives changed, dreams supported, organizations strengthened, and communities improved through the generosity and commitment of those who believe in this work.

Thank you to everyone who joined us, and a special thanks to Hamlet Vineyards for hosting, Real Jazz for providing the evening's entertainment, and Kenny Webster Photo's for capturing these wonderful moments.

We're proud to have supported Agape Center Vinton-Roanoke, a past recipient of a $6,000 Community Wellness Grant.

This funding helped address the growing demand for food assistance by supporting the purchase of nutritious food for individuals and families throughout the Roanoke Valley. The grant provided more than five months of food support, helping ensure that every request for assistance could be met from March through August 2026.

During that time, more than 6,000 individuals received healthy food purchased through Feeding Southwest Virginia, helping provide nourishment and support to community members experiencing food insecurity.

Thank you to The Agape Center for its commitment to serving our community and ensuring that families and individuals have access to the resources they need.

We're proud to support Roanoke Valley Horse Rescue with a $10,000 grant from the Foundation's Animal Funds during this year's Summer Grant Cycle.

With ongoing drought conditions impacting hay availability and increasing costs, this funding helped the organization purchase hay from local farmers for the rescue horses in its care, helping ensure they have the resources needed throughout the winter months. In total, 20 animals benefited from this support.

Roanoke Valley Horse Rescue is dedicated to preventing equine abuse and providing shelter, rehabilitation, medical care, and adoption services for horses that have been abandoned, neglected, or surrendered. Through their work, they give horses a second chance while promoting responsible equine care and education throughout the community.
