The Rypien Foundation was established to provide help to Inland Northwest families of children who are suffering from cancer. The foundation raises funds and sponsors a number of projects each year as part of this mission. A registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit, all donations to the Rypien Foundation are tax deductible, and thanks to a team of benefactors, all operational expenses are covered so 100% of donations from fundraising events, corporate donors, and public donors goes straight to families.
These funds help establish grant programs that empower other local nonprofits who directly donate aid to these families. Through these efforts, the Rypien Foundation is able to provide stability and ease the burden of parents and loved ones who need to focus on supporting a child battling cancer.
