Welcome back to Riley Smith Foundation!!!  We are a non-profit organization registered with the State of Indiana.  As some of you may already know our foundation is a non-profit organization that is "Raising Awareness for Families Coping with Life Threatening Diseases and Enduring Hardships."

It truly takes a "Great" bunch of people to come together and show such great support to benefit our cause!

"Thank you to all of our volunteers"- we could not have done it without you!!!

Walk-n-Roll

Be Inspired, Get Involved, Make A Difference, as we Walk-n-Roll Across America to raise funds for research and increase awareness of SMA. There are almost 30 walkathons and races scheduled and the momentum is building! We'd like to have at least one event in every state to achieve our goal of increasing awareness of SMA and raising much needed funds for research to find a cure.
Actors Tea Leoni and David Duchovny are providing that extra boost to help Families of SMA make this one of the largest and most successful SMA fundraisers ever.      For more information click here
