The Foundation's aim is to protect and support the health and well-being of rodeo competitors inside and outside the arena. It is named for Ty Pozzobon from Merritt, B.C., who was a hometown and Canadian rodeo hero. Ty took his own life on Jan. 9, 2017 at 25 years old. His family and friends believe his suicide was a result of brain injuries after suffering numerous concussions over the course of his bull riding career.
