Grants

The Ryyan Chacra Foundation is a grant-giving 501(c)(3) nonprofit private foundation.

The Foundation will conduct its work by supporting research, education, and public outreach efforts that focus on shedding light on the complexities of OCD and helping young people to open up and access the care they need.

Initiatives

  • Reach Out For Ryyan: An event held on September 27 each year as a way to honor Ryyan’s legacy of building community and lifting people up, and a step toward de-stigmatizing conversations about mental illness and suicide.

  • Suicide - What To Know: A one-page informational sheet for friends, family, and caregivers.

  • Clementine and Sphynx: Updating Ryyan’s photography website and continuing to share his work with the world.
