Mara Ryan

Mara was first introduced to food allergies when her oldest daughter, Cooper was just six months old. Cooper is now a rambunctious, thriving four year old - but lives each day avoiding allergens and foods that could possibly contain them. Mara is passionate about helping families and believes stronger families are the bedrock of a stronger society. She sits on the Foundation Board of Children's Hospitals & Clinics of Minnesota, the Corporate Giving Committee and was a founding member of Children's Council.
