2025 Riley Kid
Our 2025 Riley Kid is Ezra Speaking. When he was 7-years old, specialists at Riley Children’s Health diagnosed him with a gastrointestinal disease. With their expertise and support, Ezra has learned to manage his health. Now a fourth-grader, Ezra enjoys public speaking and has a YouTube channel, @EzraSpeaking, where he interviews local and national leaders, including Riley Children’s staff.
Ezra will be Bopping to the Top in January, so be sure to give him some encouragement as he climbs all 36 floors of the OneAmerica Tower!
