Ryan Lamantia Foundation

Ryan Lamantia was a 6 year old superhero who died from a malignant brain tumor and entered heaven's gates on September 8, 2005. Family and friends formed this public charity to help win the fight against pediatric brain tumors.

Our Mission: 

We are a non-profit 501(c)3 organization raising funds for:

1. Pediatric hospitals nationwide researching brain tumors to find a cure. New technology that will improve the overall chance for

survival and lessen the side affects.

2. Financially supporting families of needy children in Illinois, to help lesson one of the many strains a family will endure.

3. Accepting donations of brand new toys to hand out

to children with cancer.

Putting a smile on a child's

face is priceless.
