Help Us Memorialize our Friend

Donation protected

Hi! My name is Blake and I am fundraising to cover the expenses for a memorial tree in the city of Kingston, ON. In April, I lost my very best friend Gahyun (Carla) Namkung unexpectedly. She was 22 years old, and the absolute kindest individual I have ever met. 

Carla was a future teacher, a lover of animals, and a generous soul. She made us all laugh even on our worst days. She was a huge mental health advocate, and inspired us all to be brave and push ourselves out of our comfort zone.

My friends and I would like to have a place to visit her in Kingston, where we all met. As many of us are full-time students or recent graduates, we don't have the expenses to cover the cost of a memorial tree, which is currently set at $546.37 (https://www.cityofkingston.ca/resident/memorials/trees). If we exceed the goal of our campaign, we will be donating the extra funds to the International Society for the Study of Trauma and Dissociation (ISSTD).

You can also purchase our custom clothing to support our cause, and all proceeds will go towards the ISSTD. We have a few designs available! https://www.bonfire.com/store/isstd-fundraiser-for-carla/

Thank you for reading, and remember to be kind to one another :)
