When we’re young, we’re told to dream of a world without limitations, a world where we can be anything, and do anything,
we can imagine. For most children that means dreaming of becoming a superhero or a Nobel Laureate, a professional athlete or
famous musician. But for children who are battling cancer, the dreams tend to be a little simpler and infinitely more profound.
These children dream of a day when they’ll have the strength to ride a bike in the park with their families, or play on the jungle gym with
their friends, or walk down the hallway of their school again. They hope for a day without nausea or needles or hospitals, a day when they
don’t have to be strong and fight. A day when they don’t have to be different than everyone else. These children aren’t dreaming of being
rich or famous or powerful, they’re just dreaming of being regular, normal kids and they’re hoping beyond hope that they’ll get that
chance before their childhood disappears forever.
The Zak!Charity Open is working hard to make sure that local children never lose sight of those critical hopes and dreams, which is why
all of the proceeds from this year’s event will once again go to support the Rypien Foundation and its mission to help bring hope to local
families who are battling childhood cancer. The 17th annual event will get started with the Summer Celebration Dinner & Auction on
Sunday, July 17th at Northern Quest Resort & Casino and continues on Monday, July 18th with the Zak!Charity Open golf tournament
at Kalispel Golf and Country Club. Throughout the entire event, there will be plenty of opportunities for everyone to get involved.
Because while most of us eventually might have to let our dreams of becoming a superhero slip away, the dream of a normal childhood
and the hope of a life without cancer isn’t something any child should ever have to let go of.
benefiting Rypien Foundation
The Rypien Foundation was built with the heartfelt devotion of its founder, Super Bowl XXVI MVP Mark Rypien, who lost his
three-year-old son, Andrew, to cancer. Mark and his family experienced firsthand what families go through when fighting this
potentially deadly disease, and understand how much value quality care can bring to both patient and family. In the wake of his
personal tragedy, Mark created the Rypien Foundation as a way to provide local families with one of the most valuable tools they
can have when battling childhood cancer - HOPE.
Since 2004, the Rypien Foundation has had an impact on hundreds of lives and spent thousands of dollars to help improve
the lives of children with cancer. Through the years we have increased our efforts to support even more programs that provide
guidance, aid, and quality care to patients and their families. We have also funded special construction projects within
Providence Sacred Heart Children’s Hospital - most notably the Rypien Foundation Children’s Emergency Center – as a way to
ensure that children’s unique medical and emotional needs are being met with expert care from nurses and doctors who are
skilled in pediatrics and understand that sometimes the best medicine is to give children the freedom to just be kids – if only
for a little while. Through these, and many other projects, the Rypien Foundation is creating happy memories for children who
need a reason to smile, we’re bringing a small measure of comfort to worrying parents, and we’re giving hope to families who
desperately need something to believe in.
Please visit our website at www.rypienfoundation.org and learn more about the wonderful
programs and projects supported by your donations, and the children and families whose
lives are being changed as a result. Thank you, as always, for your support.
