Help with travel expenses

Donation protected
Hello friends,

My niece, Bailey Papes passed away suddenly without any indication of illness on July 23 at age 27.

She was the best of all of us, graduated college with honors, served in the Peace Corps, earned a masters degree when Covid shortened her service with the Peace Corps. By all accounts Bailey was an outstanding compassionate human being who put the needs of others in front of her own.

My daughter, Max has always felt a special connection to Bailey. The thought that she would somehow experience this loss and have no closure horrifies me. I am asking for your help with travel expenses so that Max and I can attend Bailey’s celebration of life on September 16th.

My family has suffered many losses over the last three years. Max has not been able to honor the death of her grandfather nor the death of her great uncle in person. I believe it is critical that Max has the opportunity to say goodbye to Bailey with her remaining family.

Thank you for taking the time to read this, I greatly appreciate any help that you can provide.

Pil Sung (faith in certain victory)
