WHO WE ARE

Born from love. Created with purpose.

The Aryanna Frye Foundation was founded on September 17, 2026, in loving memory of my daughter, Aryanna Frye.

Aryanna was so much more than a name or a story of loss. She was creative, compassionate, funny, expressive, and completely one of a kind. Her love for others, her creativity, and her dreams continue to shape the work of this foundation.

The Heart Behind Our Mission | Meet Aryanna

WHY WE EXIST

Losing Aryanna changed our lives forever. I created this foundation because I wanted her life to continue making a difference.

I wanted to take the love we have for her, along with the pain of losing her, and turn it into something that could bring hope, help, and connection to someone else.

The Aryanna Frye Foundation was born from that love with the belief that even in the midst of unimaginable loss, we can choose to reach for one another and create something meaningful.

OUR PURPOSE

The Aryanna Frye Foundation is dedicated to mental health awareness, suicide prevention, education, outreach, and support for individuals and families who may be struggling.

We want to help create a world where conversations about mental health aren't hidden or avoided, where asking for help is met with compassion, and where no one feels as though they have to struggle alone.

Through awareness, education, community outreach, creative opportunities, and meaningful support, we hope to remind people of something that can be difficult to believe during life's hardest moments:

You matter. Your life has value. You are not alone.

LIVE4ARY

Aryanna's compassion, creativity, and dreams continue to guide the work we do.

Through LIVE4ARY, we carry her memory forward by encouraging people to reach out, check on one another, be kind, speak openly about mental health, and remind others that their lives have value.

LIVE4ARY is more than a phrase. It is a reminder to live with compassion, to notice the people around us, to speak when something needs to be said, and to never underestimate what a simple act of kindness or connection can mean to someone who is struggling.

TURNING LOVE INTO ACTION

We cannot change what happened, but we can choose what we do with the love Aryanna left behind.

We choose to create hope from heartbreak.

We choose awareness.

We choose compassion.

We choose to reach out.

We choose to help others.

We choose to LIVE4ARY.
