Ryan's
Memorial Park
The foundations initial thought in
2003 was to build a specific Park/Playground in Middletown NJ dedicated in Ryan's name.
We found that the political process was not very conducive to our goals. Believe it
or not, some people do not want a park or playground in their "backyard"
Our trustees have
decided that perhaps we will have a bigger impact if we contribute to and sponsor
many playgrounds in different towns and States. These parks/playgrounds will
benefit many children and their families. To date we have built three
playgrounds, spending approximately $40,000.00.
It is our
intention to be a part of several playground projects each year. Currently
we are talking with the Ronald McDonald House at St. Christopher's Hospital
for Children in Philadelphia PA. We would like to be the lead sponsor for
the playground project scheduled for summer of 2008.
We hope that over
time the Ryan Andrew Kaiser Memorial Foundation will have their name on many
playground projects around the country. Perhaps you will see one in your town soon.
Should you know of a worthwhile,
child friendly project that may need our help, please contact us.
