The Sweet Kynlea Foundation was created by Dereck and Kylie Syfert in loving memory of their daughter, Kynlea Ryan Syfert — Sweet Kynlea. Born from a family's love and a community's generosity, the foundation exists to keep Kynlea's light shining by turning love into action and kindness into lasting impact.

We carry her passions forward through five pathways: soccer scholarships that give young athletes the chance to play and grow; Christian kids camps where children build faith and friendship; children's ministries that nurture love, service, and the Word of God; youth theatre and arts programs that help kids discover and express their creativity; and animal shelters that care for God's creatures with the same compassion Kynlea showed them.

The Sweet Kynlea Foundation Fund is held at the San Antonio Area Foundation, a registered 501(c)(3) public charity, so every gift is secure, tax-deductible, and stewardship is handled with care. Together — one gift, one season, one child, one animal at a time — we are carrying her love forward.
