The 916 Foundation
About Us
Finding Inspiration in Every Turn
Mission Statement
To honor Tyler’s legacy by providing support, faith, advocacy and resources to individuals and families affected by traumatic brain injuries, seizure disorders, and motorcycle and motocross-related accidents and tragedies. We are committed to advancing education and awareness while empowering youth and families to live lives marked by courage, compassion, faith, and service to others.
Vision Statement
A community where every individual has the strength to rise after adversity, the resources to heal, and the encouragement to finish life’s race with faith.
Why 916?
Tyler’s number, 916, carries a double meaning. It was the number he proudly raced under on the motocross track, and it also reflects his birthdate—September 16th. Together, these numbers tell the story of his determination, his identity, and his unwavering faith. Every time someone asks about 916, we get to share Tyler’s legacy: a life lived wide open.
