Our Story - Creating Bright Futures – The John Tavares Foundation

Our Founding Story

Hi, we’re John & Aryne

Strengthening roots in the community.

As parents, we recognize the importance of quality time as a family and the role that community plays in shaping future generations.

To create a positive and lasting impact, we launched our foundation to ensure kids everywhere are provided with the tools to take part in their community, awaken their inner passions, and transform their potential into possibilities.

We can be whatever we want to be!

Children are our future and it’s important we empower kids to be kids, families to be families and enable communities to thrive.

When you find your passion, nothing can stand in your way.

Looking back, I was fortunate to find my passion early in life. Beyond the coaches and teammates that are now life-long friends, hockey taught me more than just how to pass the puck, it provided me with plenty of life lessons as well.

Growing up, Aryne fondly remembers participating in community events, clubs and leadership camps as it taught her to set goals, overcome adversity and achieve her dreams later in life.

It makes creating opportunities for the next generation to grow even more rewarding. Our Foundation offers families support and access to valuable resources that are grounded in a purpose.

It fuels us to be our best!

Aryne and I care deeply about always being present in the moment. We hope you find fun, inspiration and tips that provide fuel for continued growth – together, we will make bright futures possible.
