The Ryan Barnard Grant Program

In loving memory of Ryan James Barnard, a proud U.S. Marine and beloved West Point Jr. Black Knight, the Ryan Barnard Grant Program was established to honor his legacy of integrity, courage, and selfless service. Ryan’s dedication on the ice and in the military reflected a rare strength of character that continues to inspire.

This program provides financial assistance to youth hockey players and military members who embody Ryan’s values and demonstrate need. Whether it's support for hockey tuition, education, medical expenses, or life challenges, the grant is a tribute to Ryan’s spirit and legacy of leadership, resilience, and giving back.

Funded through donations and community events, the program ensures Ryan’s impact lives on in every stride taken and every life touched.
