The Rory Foundation
Overview
They believe that every child has the right to the best healthcare that can be provided; that children should be able to look forward to a bright future and feel safe and free from harm in the community they live; and that research can help save and change children's lives.
Their goal is to release funds that seek to advance opportunity and lasting change for children who are suffering from ill health or who are unfairly disadvantaged or vulnerable to lifes circumstances. Our underlying values are ambition, passion and drive.
Rory McIlroy - "When I was younger my parents sacrificed everything to allow me to play the game I love. Having that support from my family gave me the opportunity to chase my dreams. But I know that every child is not so fortunate. My aim is that The Rory Foundation will support children’s charities big and small around the world that try to give kids that helping hand".
