Grant Process

The Rypien Foundation identifies and funds quality, community-based non-profit organizations that provide direct service and support to children and their families battling cancer. The Rypien Foundation seeks to support programs that are meeting a critical need in our community, programs that enhance the stability, health and quality of life for children with cancer.

Through a grant review process, the Foundation and its Executive Board determine programs to be funded by grants on a quarterly basis.

Grants from the Rypien Foundation are made possible through the support of the many generous businesses and individuals in our community. The Rypien Foundation raises funds for grants and key initiatives through fundraising events, corporate partnerships and individual donations.
