In addition to creating the Tangerine film, Ryan Layden plans to establish the Tangerine Foundation, a charity dedicated to assisting families adjust to life after the loss of a loved one. By developing partnerships with other charities, the foundation aims to help families cope in their time of loss, providing care through community-based services and emotional, mental, and spiritual support. Though loss happens to many of us, the grief and trauma caused from losing a love one cannot be underestimated.
The Tangerine Foundation is still in the development phase and all contributions will be going to both the film and the further progress of the charity.
