About Us

The Recreational Therapy Foundation (RTF) is a 501c3 nonprofit organization that relies on donations to fund grants specifically for research in support of recreational therapy evidence-based practice. In addition to the grants provided for research, RTF also provides the Frank N. Basile Award for Excellence in the field of therapeutic recreation. 


Donations received go directly to achieving our mission and funding our grants. Each of our board members are volunteers located across the United States and Canada. Our board members are passionate about expanding the field of therapeutic recreation by supporting research and evidence based practices. 


In addition to making a donation through our JustGiving page and the links on our website, the RTF provides t-shirts as a thank you for donations that meet a specific amount. You can find out more about our t-shirt fundraisers through our social media accounts, or by messaging us through our pages. 


If you’re interested in volunteering on our board of directors, be sure to reach out through our Contact Us page. We’d love to hear from you! 


Please consider supporting our mission and bettering our field.
