MAX WELL FOR LIFE MISSION
THE MAX WELL FOR LIFE FUND SUPPORTING local veterans through THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION OF FREDERICK
We've established a fund with The Community Foundation as a charitable giving partner. The purpose of our fund is to provide grants to nonprofit organizations and IRS designated 501c3 public charities in Frederick County Maryland that support the mental health needs of veterans and their immediate family providing programming to address other imperative needs of veterans locally.
Veteran needs include affordable housing, transportation, jobs, health care, child care, housing, outdoor recreation and food security as determined by the most current humans needs assessments conducted by the Foundation.
EAST CAROLINA UNIVERSITY SCHOLARSHIP
We have funded the Maxwell Ronald Tyeryar Military scholarship endowment with East Carolina University in Greenville, NC where Max attended and graduated. This scholarship will be awarded in perpetuity to a student who is either active military or a veteran and preferably from Frederick County, MD.

Our annual golf tournament raises awareness and donations for our charity mission bringing together family and friends to celebrate Max's life and legacy. This year's event was held on May 30, 2024 at PB Dye Golf Club in Ijamsville, MD. Our 2025 tournament will return to PB Dye on May 16. Please save the date.

We've participated in the Out of the Darkness walks supporting AFSP.ORG in September 2022 and 2023 in Germantown MD. This year's walk will be held in Frederick's Baker Park on October 12.
MAX
We lost our beautiful son Maxwell Ronald Tyeryar to suicide on January 29, 2022.
Max had completed his degree in Criminal Justice at East Carolina University and in August 2021 fulfilled his 6 year commitment of military service to his country with the U.S. Army National Guard.
During his time with the National Guard, Max was deployed to Kuwait serving there for 9 months in support of Operation Enduring Freedom.
Max earned a Sergeant's ranking and received many service medals including the most distinguished Army Achievement Medal.
Max was a very kind and loving person uniquely humble with his many accomplishments throughout his young life.
Max cared deeply for others and had a gift to help everyone he knew feel better about themselves.
He always masked the true struggle that he was in. His positive attitude and sense of humor hid the real pain that was under his smile.
our PURPOSE
We are on a lifelong journey to survive losing Max to suicide. We honor his memory and legacy in the work we now do with Max Well For Life.
We're partnering with foundations dedicated to serving our veterans and community, providing help and preventing suicide through advocacy, research, education and support.
Our goal is to reach and help support those who struggle with their path in life along with the families and friends who have been impacted by the loss of a loved one through suicide.
THANKS FOR YOUR DONATION
We appreciate your generous support of our mission and honoring Max's beautiful life and legacy.

1 Peter 5:10
"And after you have suffered a little while, then God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, establish, and strengthen you"
In memory of Dave Caruso who inspired this charity to form.
There is now less laughter in our day, less laughter that fills the night,
Less laughter to find our way, always had a song in his heart, something kind to say.
He was just ahead of us all in this life and has now flown away.
We will see you in paradise one day.
And then we can laugh again.
