Ryan House 2024 Annual Report

Providing hope,

health, and happiness

Thank you for being part of our Ryan House family.

As we celebrate a remarkable milestone, Ryan House’s 15th Anniversary in 2025, we’re excited to share a refreshed look for our 2024 Annual Report, including our commemorative logo, designed by our generous friends at LAVIDGE! It’s more than a new design; it’s a tribute to the compassion, generosity, and unwavering support that have brought us here and continue to guide our future. More than 15 years ago, Ryan House began as a vision rooted in love, dignity, and comfort for children with life-limiting conditions. Today, that vision is a reality, thanks to you. Every moment of respite, every memory made, and every ounce of comfort provided to our families is made possible by your generosity.

Because of you, in the past 15 years, we’ve been able to: • Welcome and care for over 1,000 children since 2010 • Offer 550,560 hours of much-needed respite care • Fill countless hearts with cherished memories

These are not just numbers. They are lifelines.

Behind every one of these moments is a community of generous supporters who make them possible. In this report, you will read about one of our incredible donors, Sundt, whose renovation of our beloved S’more Café—truly the heart of our home—has created a brighter, warmer gathering space for families. Their continued generosity through the Sundt Foundation has supported our signature events and granted vital funding that directly impacts our mission.

As more children with life-limiting conditions live longer due to medical advances, the demand for our services continues to grow. With a $3.9 million annual operating budget, your ongoing support is not just appreciated—it’s essential.

We are deeply grateful to be on this journey with you. Thank you for believing in our mission and for helping us build a future filled with comfort, joy, and unwavering care for the children and families we serve.
