Dylan Tarbi Foundation

2026 Dodge for Dylan was a huge success! Thank YOU for helping to make it happen. None of this would have been possible without a village of supporters. We feel incredibly grateful for all of those volunteered their time and resources; for all of those who played and came out to watch the event. If you know Keith and Robin personally, then you know hosting a community event is not in our comfort zone at all. But we feel led to create fun "adventures" that Dylan would have enjoyed and in doing so giving back to others. Thank you all!

Dedicated to honoring the memory of Dylan Tarbi, our mission is to spread joy and kindness to local youth, empowering them to pursue their dreams of adventure. Your contributions have directly enabled us to support student activities at Freeport Area Middle and High Schools, contributed to the Deer Lakes Backpack Initiative (providing food for 196 children weekly), and encouraged outdoor engagement through the memorial bike ride event on the Butler-Freeport Community Trail. We also hope to foster community spirit and fun, as we plan our upcoming free dodgeball tournament designed to bring everyone together during the winter months. We invite you to follow our journey on Facebook.

The words "Thank You" don't seem to cover it. We are deeply touched by the outpouring of support for Dylan's Bike Ride. It was a beautiful day of remembrance and community, and thanks to your generosity, we raised over $3,000 for the Dylan Tarbi Foundation. This money will directly impact young lives, spreading kindness and helping them achieve their dreams, just as Dylan would have wanted. We are so grateful for each and every one of you!
