This program serves low-income families who have to focus on necessities rather than “niceities”. With the help of our volunteers, we provide everything needed to help these families give their little ones a birthday party including decor and at least one gift. We add birthdays throughout the year, so check back frequently for additional options - or sign up for our Army of Angels and you’ll get an email. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7ee8a016dfff5fe6f62d6f/5f6f33ea-6da8-4524-9189-556d9abcb78e/BHB+Social+Media+%282%29.png Home - Be Happy Boutique The Be Happy Boutique will be returning to the Streets of Southglenn.

With Rylie as her biggest cheerleader, she spent years as an English teacher, a triathlete, aspiring entrepreneur and dreamer. She completed Ironman Boulder just sixteen days after Rylie's death as a way to honor the fact that Rylie always challenged her to reach for her dreams. Heading up Rylie's ARK is Meghann's way of sharing the spirit of Rylie and continuing her legacy. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7ee8a016dfff5fe6f62d6f/1585781469029-6WUPBTC1UVD7B15NLJAW/img-1007-edit.jpg About Us - Ziggy Guentensberger Co-Founder Ziggy counts himself as truly lucky to have spent over twelve years learning from and being challenged by Rylie, as her dad. He is an avid hockey player and mountain biker. He enjoyed hours shared in the kitchen with Rylie as they cooked together. Rylie's ARK was Ziggy's brainchild and his way of keeping a small part of Rylie alive - spreading the kindness for which she was so well known. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7ee8a016dfff5fe6f62d6f/1588632797708-NR4SI5BVZWJJT29SHO8K/Jenn%2Bbio.jpg About Us - Jennifer Bennett Jennifer’s heart for Rylie’s ARK and its mission stems from her friendship with the Guentensbergers over the last 10 years. One fun morning of sharing a lane with Meghann at a Master’s swim workout led to a treasured family friendship and an opportunity to grow Rylie’s legacy in our community. Jennifer relies on her background as a lawyer, web developer, technical writer, mom, and volunteer coordinator to bring as many ideas for spreading the influence of Rylie’s ARK to the table as possible. She loves working in the background to help others transform ideas into action and share the BIG impact of small acts of kindness. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7ee8a016dfff5fe6f62d6f/1588633697639-YFG0EHXDKCE91W5IC6P4/56894445_10220123279618761_9082859188173930496_n.jpg About Us - Saskia Placke Saskia is a Dutch translator, an entrepreneur at heart, and always looks for practical solutions. She lives with her family and two dogs outside of Dallas and likes to volunteer for different organizations. Saskia has been volunteering for Rylie’s ARK from the day it was founded and truly enjoys being part of the Army of Angels. She loves how Rylie’s ARK allows everyone to discover and unlock the kindness that is within each one of us. Sometimes you just need to be presented with an opportunity to tap into this kindness and the rest will follow. Saskia loves the awareness of kindness that Rylie’s ARK creates and is honored to be a part of this. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7ee8a016dfff5fe6f62d6f/1596586567205-YVOH7R1P34IP0FWTISVI/IMG_2257.jpg About Us - Heather Rakowski Heather is a Personal Trainer/Group Fitness Instructor. She loves encouraging and inspiring others to live the best life they can. Heather was drawn to Rylie’s ARK because she resonated with its mission of spreading kindness through random acts and creating joy. Heather met the Guentensbergers through hockey over 4 years ago. Their boys played on the same hockey team and the families connected right away. Rylie’s ARK has been an organization that Heather’s family has enjoyed being a part from the day it was founded. She is excited to be a part of this amazing organization and can’t wait to help create new ways to make other’s feel special through acts of kindness. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7ee8a016dfff5fe6f62d6f/1625614577499-6CS0R73UIZI4RFR50SFH/Betsy+pic.jpg About Us - Betsy Larson Betsy has been in the digital marketing space for over 20 years.
