Danielle LeBlanc Foundation
Phone:
The Danielle LeBlanc Foundation is a non-profit organization that’s sole purpose it to help local charities continue their gratuitous acts of helping women and children who have been victims of domestic violence. These charities, such as, Safe Haven of Tarrant County and I Can Still Shine, are both non-profit, tax-exempt organizations who are dedicated to the support of women and children whose lives have been affected by domestic violence. The foundations provide clothing & food distribution, counseling, educational services, shelter, and more.
Our foundation made a name for itself in 2010, although our benefit concert has been growing for the past 10 years. Anna Marie Reeves and her brother, Mark LeBlanc, started it in 2006 after their sister lost her life due to domestic abuse. They chose to hold the concert in May because it is the month of their birthdays. With this concert, they are able to remember her and bring awareness to others who may be struggling or know someone who is.
Anna Marie Reeves and her brother, Mark LeBlanc, started the concert in 2006 after losing their sister, Danielle LeBlanc. Danielle was a victim of domestic violence. Anna Marie stays at home with her two children, Danielle and Jackson. Danielle was of course, named after her late aunt. She started The Danielle LeBlanc Foundation in hopes to make a name for her sister and help make others more aware. Since the foundation has started, many new fundraising events have been added and more are expected in the future.
Mark LeBlanc lives in Denver, Colorado and is the drummer for Coral Thief. He has been playing since the age of 2. He frequently tours all over the US and has been very successful. His contribution to this event is substantial due to his many connections with the music industry. His sister, Danielle, was and always will be his biggest fan.
This is a family foundation and our family exceeds more than blood. Over 100 of our closest friends have donated their time to help support the foundation. We are grateful for the outpouring and continuous support.
