Celebrating Ryan’s Legacy — The Farewell Tour 🏌️‍♂️💙

Friends and family, we can’t wait to celebrate with you at the Annual Ryan Griffin Memorial Golf Tournament — The Farewell Tour.

What a journey it’s been. It all started when Kim felt a calling to create change right here in the St. Louis area. She wanted to stop drugs from getting into the hands of our youth, our community, our families, our sons and brothers.

Led by faith, she and Rick created this foundation to raise money to purchase and donate K9 dogs to area police departments as well as support High School Wrestlers in their college journey. And look what happened:

Because of Kim listening to that guidance from God and turning this dream into reality...
Because of area businesses who donated...
Because of friends and family who rallied, golfed, volunteered, and gave...
Because of carrying the memory of their treasured son, Ryan...

You now see his name on area police department K9 SUVs. Hundreds of HS wrestler’s were given a gift to start on the right foot in their university journey in Ryan’s name.

Our K9s have made a huge difference:
Gotten drugs off our streets to prevent further deaths
Stopped drugs from going into jails
Assisted in search and rescue efforts
Helped with perp capture

As this is our farewell golf tournament, we want to THANK YOU. We cannot say thank you enough to the friends and family who have participated, donated, and volunteered to make this foundation a success. You believed in our dream and you showed up. Every year.

Even though this is goodbye for now with our annual tournament, this isn’t the end. Be on the lookout for other ways you can continue to support this legacy. We want to keep pouring into the community and making a difference in Ryan’s name.

All because one mom listened to her calling. All because a community said yes. All because of Ryan.

Looking forward to a great day and seeing everyone on the golf course! 💙

Venmo -Griffin-36 ♥️
