The mission of the Ryan Nece Foundation is to create opportunities for teens to embrace the Power of Giving through volunteerism and inspirational leadership programs. Our vision is to empower teens to become leaders and impact giving in their communities.
Ready to make a lasting impact? We are currently seeking mentors – especially in medicine and law. Our organized program invites mentors to meet once a quarter virtually with their carefully matched mentee.

Upon joining the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2002, Ryan participated in many community events and supported various charitable organizations on behalf of the team. Eventually, he formed the Ryan Nece Foundation in September 2006 as a way to formalize his own charitable contributions to the community.

Our board of directors includes a diverse set of professionals from around Tampa Bay. Take a moment to meet our board members and find out what the Power of Giving means to them.
The power to give is present inside each and every individual. No act of kindness is too small. It’s our philosophy and the idea that everyone has the ability to make the world a better place through the giving of their time, talents, treasures, and ties.
We often challenge others to answer the question, “If not you, then who?” Meet the team who answers this call to action every day.
