Mission Statement

The Building Educating Life Leaders Foundation (BELL Foundation) is a Nonprofit Charitable Organization (501c3) that serves victims of gun violence in the Dallas Fort Worth area. The BELL Foundation responds to the emotional needs of these victims and supports their family members through the cycle of grief that, inevitably, comes with losing a loved one. We provide resources to victims and their families with free services such as grief counseling, support networks, community education, and therapeutic activities that are peer-based and ongoing. The BELL Foundation has a network of mothers, fathers, and siblings who can support and encourage one another. We are here to build community partnerships to better support grieving families.
