The New York Korean & American Alpine Club will deliver the donations to the Kim/Lee and Cho families outside of GoFundMe.

Dear Friends,

I am writing to you today to ask for your help in supporting the families of two dear friends who recently passed away in an avalanche. Lee Jini, Cho SungTae were wonderful people who touched the lives of everyone who knew them. They are the most adventurous and passionate climbers who love mountains and appreciate nature.

I used to hike with them every Sunday over 1 year. They inspired, and trained young hikers like me. They always look after beginner hikers' safety first. Cho SungTae, He was the leader of New york korean &American Alpine club Inc.

Lee Jini she was a mother of our group, she cooked for us and feed us when we go to camp!

In the wake of their tragic deaths, their families are struggling to make ends meet. That's why I'm writing to you today - to ask for your support in raising funds to help them through this difficult time. Your donation will go directly to the families and will help them pay for funeral costs, medical bills, and other expenses related to this tragedy.

Your donation, no matter how small, will make a big difference in their lives.

Thank you for your generosity and support during this difficult time. Your kindness will never be forgotten.

Sincerely,

Injung Ko
