A Promise of Hope with Ty Eschenbaum

Ty Eschenbaum, a Lake Preston, South Dakota native, has felt the powerful impact hope can have on one’s life. After narrowly surviving a battle with cancer as a teenager, Ty was motivated to recognize others who lost some of their formative years to cancer. In 2011, at just 23 years old, he established the Ty Eschenbaum Foundation, a nonprofit offering scholarships to graduating seniors in South Dakota who beat cancer. Since that time, his Foundation has granted over $313,000 toward Make-A-Wish South Dakota & Montana, missionary work and scholarships.
