Ryan Daly dedicates himself to be behind the lens for YLLC

Ryan Daly, owner of 29Eleven Productions, has been lending his unique talent for filming to Youth Life since 2005.    Originally from Ohio, Ryan moved to Nashville to attend Lipscomb University.   He started volunteering after hearing about the opportunity from Lindsay Daly, older sister and now program director at YLLC.  Ryan films everything from special events and Fun Fridays to PSAs and campaigns.  He is so dedicated to filming at our centers that kids oftentimes don’t recognize him unless his video camera is in hand.

Ryan lends so many of his skills to benefit our programming, because he is motivated by creativity and standing up for his beliefs.  He is an awesome role model to YLLC students, showing students that they can make a difference in a positive, unique way.

“I have been volunteering my video production skills at Youth Life since 2005. I think being able to spread the word about how great Youth Life Learning Centers is has made a positive difference in my own video work.  I see YLLC helping thousands more inner-city kids, educationally, spiritually and mentally.  I believe 100% in what YLLC stands for,” says Ryan. 

Volunteering his talent has given him unique opportunities that he might otherwise not have had, such as interviewing many NFL and former NFL players at various YLLC events.  Also, Ryan enjoys simply interacting with the children served in our programming, especially with all the funny comments that our students say while they’re on camera.

Youth Life would like to extend a warm thank you to Ryan for his many hours of dedication and talent to benefit our organization.
