Youth Anti-Violence Initiative - This initiative addresses the crisis in our communities and schools. The Ryan Cameron Foundation (RCF) provides a platform for young people to openly express their thoughts and opinions on issues that impact them. This is accomplished through our Anti-Violence Forum, Youth Anti-Violence Contest, and monthly Teen Driver Education. The impact of this program is measured by the youth who take a stand against violence & distracted driving and choose to use their voices to become ambassadors for change within their communities.
Youth Golf Clinic - The Ryan Cameron Foundation introduces the game of golf to 25 youth at our Annual Youth Golf Clinic. With the assistance of PGA golf pros, the participants are taught the fundamentals of the game in a beginner’s golf clinic. Following the clinic, all of the youth have an opportunity to cultivate their skills through group play with an adult mentor. The goal of the Youth Golf Clinic, is to expose each participant to a sport that they can play throughout their lifetime.
Father Daughter Dance - This is the foundation's annual gala event that is designed to strengthen the bond between a father and his daughter. Held on Father's Day, this elegant affair allows daughters as young as 2 years of age to be treated like ladies by their dads. It's a day neither father or daughter will forget.
Passport to Health - The Ryan Cameron Foundation (RCF) is dedicated to developing a healthier and more active Atlanta community. RCF empowers individuals to make healthier lifestyle choices through our Annual Health Fair, fitness & nutrition education, school programming, and community engagement appearances. The goal of Passport to Health is to inspire a culture of wellness in those we serve.
