The Ryan Callahan Foundation has been nothing short of amazing since the very beginning of our son's diagnosis. We are so grateful for the love & support our little warrior Apollo has received as he fights away cancer. Kyla Callahan & the entire team have been such a blessing to our family during the most difficult and hurtful time of our lives, but we find comfort in knowing we are not alone. We truly appreciate you for everything you do!
Apollo & Otero Family
The Ryan Callahan Foundation holds a special place in our hearts for the incredible support and love they provided during the most challenging time of our lives. When our daughter Madison was in the hospital for what turned out to be her last Christmas, Kyla and her team brought the holiday spirit straight to us. They decorated the outside of our home so beautifully, creating a magical atmosphere that Madison loved. It meant everything to have that joy during such a difficult time.
The foundation didn’t just stop there—they thought of every detail to care for our whole family. They gave our son Jackson, a cancer sibling, a moment he’ll never forget by organizing a visit from police officers and K-9 units, knowing how much he dreams of becoming a police officer. They made him feel so special, which was such a gift during a time when siblings can often feel overshadowed.
To help us honor Madison’s memory, they sent us on a trip to Great Wolf Lodge which was where Maddie’s last trip was, where we were able to make beautiful memories as a family and remember Maddie in her favorite place.
They made sure we had Christmas gifts, fun activities as a family, and even special moments just for the parents, reminding us to take care of ourselves.
Kyla, who runs the foundation, is one of the kindest people we’ve ever met. She truly would do anything to help, and her compassion and care made us feel so supported. The Ryan Callahan Foundation didn’t just give us help; they gave us hope and love when we needed it most. We can’t thank them enough for everything they did for our family.
