Select Project by Client Category

In 2004 Joan Kroc, wife of McDonald's founder Ray Kroc, gave an endowment to The Salvation Army of $1.5 billion. The funds are to be used to construct and develop world-class recreational, educational and ministry centers that will provide abundant elevating opportunities to people from all walks and all years of life.

Mrs. Kroc's gift was divided equally and given to The Salvation Army's four regional headquarters to established a process to seek and review applications from local communities interested in a RJKCCC, ensuring the key goals of mission and ministry, financial stability, community partnership and involvement, and design and construction were met.

Ballard*King & Associates is honored to have been a part of the process of assisting many Salvation Army communities with their bids for RJKCCC sites. We now continue to be a part of the process of bringing numerous Ray and Joan Kroc Corps Community Centers from coast-to-coast on the road to becoming the beacons of hope the Salvation Army and Joan Kroc envisioned them to be.
