Support Emma's Legacy: The Bee Kind Project

Emma was lost tragically in a plane crash in San Diego on May 22, 2025. Emma was the light of our lives, brought so much joy to all who knew her, and the world is less bright without her.

We are in the process of establishing a charitable organization in Emma's name. Happy to report that The Bee Kind Project is now an official recognized entity in CA and we have our Federal Tax ID. Federal 501(c)(3) approval is pending and we hope to have that shortly.

We are also working on a website for future event planning and donations, but in the meantime, we have this GoFund Me fundraiser for those who wish to contribute.

Please know that these funds will only be used for charitable causes that were important to Emma. Emma was an avid reader and an amazing writer, so we will be supporting organizations related to reading and literacy.

Emma was a fiercely protective older sister, so funds will support the LGBTQ+ community in honor of her sibling Ellis.

There may be other future causes we may support - all in alignment with Emma's values of kindness, compassion, and celebrating music.

We have already set up a completely separate memorial bank account in Emma's name. Once her charity is established, these funds will be dispersed to organizations through that account.

Thank you all for your love and support. You have no idea how much it means to us during this incredibly difficult time.
