The John Ritter Foundation was created in October 2003, just weeks after John’s sudden death due to an acute aortic dissection. Formed by his widow, Amy Yasbeck, and their family for the purpose of preventing unnecessary suffering caused by the unknown.
 
The John Ritter Foundation is dedicated to improving the identification of individuals at risk for aortic dissections, aneurysms, and the treatment of thoracic aortic disease through medical research, education, and advocacy.
