ABOUT THE 
FOUNDATION

The Ryan Gordy Foundation was founded by Anita Thompson, Ryan Gordy’s mom and the Board of founding members. The Foundation is a non-profit organization whose mission is to help young adults and their families while they are going through the biggest fight of their lives.


We do this through our Guardian Angel Program that provides financial, housing and transportation assistance to young adults battling cancer. We also host Wellness Retreats. These retreats take their inspiration from the healthy lifestyle that was such an important foundational pillar of Ryan Gordy’s life. At these retreats patients and their family members spend time in a beautiful, calming, and healing environment, learning techniques and strategies to improve overall holistic health as they become woven into a safe and supportive community.



We are mommies and daddies on a mission with a deep commitment to young adults who are impacted by cancer. We are looking forward to building a healthy generation that heals the world
