Honoring Carlos Cumbay: Support His Family

Con profunda tristeza en nuestros corazones, hoy nos dirigimos a ustedes para solicitar su apoyo. Muchos de ustedes conocen a las wawas de primera generación, quienes llenaron de alegría nuestro barrio con su arte, danzas y música. Las wawas, junto con sus familias, compartieron más de una década de amor y enseñanzas por todo NY. Seguramente recuerdan a una de ellas: Kaylee Cumbay.

Hoy lamentamos informar que su papa, Carlos Cumbay, ha dejado este mundo terrenal después de una valiente lucha contra su enfermedad. En este difícil momento, hacemos un llamado a toda la comunidad que ha apoyado y sigue apoyando a Wawakuna, para que, con un granito de arena, nos ayuden a cubrir algunos gastos que la familia de Kaylee necesita en estos momentos dificiles. Pueden donar al GoFundMe que creamos.

Si desean colaborar directamente a la familia, también pueden enviarme un mensaje para informacion de la mamá de Kaylee.

Siempre en solidaridad,

Colectivo Wawakuna

With deep sadness in our hearts, we reach out to you today to ask for your support. Many of you know the first-generation Wawas, who spread love to our neighborhood with their art, dance, and music. The Wawas and their families shared more than a decade of love and teachings throughout New York. Surely, you remember one of them: Kaylee Cumbay.

Today, we regret to inform you that her father, Carlos Cumbay, has passed away after a strong and difficult battle with his illness. During this difficult time, we are calling on the entire community that has supported and continues to support Wawakuna to ask for economic support to help us alleviate some of the expenses that Kaylee's family is facing in these difficult moments. Donate to this GoFundMe we created.

If you would like to contribute directly to the family, you can also reach out to me so I can put you in contact with Kaylee's mom.

Always in solidarity,

Wawakuna Collective
