Our History
Danielle’s journey began with the love and support of her mother—her greatest friend and her rock. When her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer, Danielle stood by her side, heartbroken yet hopeful. Tragically, as a side effect of chemotherapy, her mother was later diagnosed with AML, and they were given just four precious months together.
In those final days, Danielle made a promise—a promise to dedicate her life to helping others facing cancer. That vow became the foundation of Dream Rydes: a mission to support children and families through life-saving medical transportation and unforgettable experiences that bring hope, joy, and relief during one of life’s most challenging journeys.
