The organization will formally introduce its mission during AVN Strong Weekend, scheduled for November 27–29, 2026, in Atlanta.

Through AVN Strong, he hopes to address some of the challenges encountered by families caring for children with disabilities, including the need for accessible resources, emotional support and stronger community connections. "Being AVN's father changed my life," said Ray G, founder of the AVN Strong Foundation. "He brought an incredible amount of love, joy and purpose into my world. Our journey together allowed me to see firsthand the realities that children with disabilities and their families navigate every day. AVN Strong is my way of honoring my son while building something that can make a meaningful difference for other families." Ray G has spent years working in music and entertainment, developing professional relationships with artists including Cardi B, Offset and members of Migos. The foundation represents an extension of that work, bringing together his industry relationships and commitment to families affected by disabilities.
