PATRICK T. RYAN’S FRIENDS HONOR HIS 60TH BIRTHDAY

Fellow staff members of Press Ganey Associates honored Patrick Ryan’s 60th birthday by making generous donations to our chapter. Mr. Ryan, CEO of Press Ganey, asked that the funds be directed to The First Tee programming in his local area. Mr. Ryan is an avid golfer and has a passion for supporting youth development. He donated funds to build a new sports field at Avon Old Farms (named the “Ryan Field”). As a corporate donor, he also served on the scholar review committee for the Pat Tillman Foundation, which awards scholarships to returning veterans. He has instituted an annual community service day at Press Ganey where employees donate a full day of volunteer work by 1300+ associates to organizations in need. “The staff and leadership at Press Ganey understand the importance of giving back to the community,” said chapter Executive Director Carl Mistretta. “Together we will impact the lives of young people by teaching them life skills and that golf is more than a game. It is the sport of a lifetime and the sport of business.”
