From 4x Cancer Survivor Ryan Hamner
Bamba Box care packages were created by four-time cancer survivor, Ryan Hamner.
Hamner, who had cancer at ages 6, 9, 11, and 21 years of age, underwent many medical procedures, treatments, and surgeries while going through cancer.
As a child with cancer, Ryan’s grandparents, “Bamba” and Granddaddy, would bring him a care package every time they visited him in the hospital.
“When you’re a kid, going into surgery—procedures or something like that can be pretty scary. The care package my grandparents always promised me after my procedure gave me something to look forward to. It helped me get through some tough times as a kid,” the four-time survivor said.
Today, with the help of Bamba Box care packages for kids, Ryan wants to brighten the days of children all around.
Why Does the Parachute Man Matter?
Every Bamba Box will come with a toy parachute man—and these guys are important.
As a child, one of Ryan’s favorite gifts to get in his Bamba Box was the parachute man. It’s a simple toy that can be tossed into the air and will float to the ground as the chute opens.
The parachute man is an important symbol of hope and inspiration for us to prepare for our next adventure. We look forward to sharing our inspiration for hope. With a Bamba Box, you get exclusive access to Ryan’s music and inspiration through songs like “Where Hope Lives,” written for the American Cancer Society.
