Our logo features a bumblebee,  Why?

The bumblebee is a symbol of community.  Their movement from plant to plant represents the inter-connectedness of all living things.  The bumblebee is a messenger bringing the secrets of life and service.  Ryan was the human equivalent of a bumblebee.  His web was vast and his circles broad; the impact he made on those he crossed deep.  The Foundation will honor Ryan’s life and memory by carrying his bumblebee with us for the balance of ours.  We can think of no symbol that better symbolizes our goal of positively impacting the community than the bumblebee.

“The bee is more honored than other animals, not because she labors, but because she labors for others.”

— St. John Chrysostom
