What they care about

Hi, my name is Cheikh Ndiaye. I believe in the power of community, compassion, and coming together to support one another during life's most difficult moments.

    We are incredibly grateful to share that, since launching this fundraiser on Saturday, we have already raised over $3,000 for Ngone’s family. Your generosity, kind words, prayers, and shares have meant so much during this heartbreaking time. Every donation—regardless of the amount—is helping with funeral expenses and providing support to Ngone’s parents, Abdoul and Fatim. Thank you for showing this family so much love. Please continue sharing the fundraiser so we can reach even more people and provide them with as much support as possible. ❤️
    Help us honor Ngone's memory and support her family during this heartbreaking time. Remembering Our Beautiful Ngone ❤️ On September 16, 2026, the Talla family experienced an unimaginable tragedy when their beloved 7-year-old daughter, Ngone Talla, passed away while returning home from school. Ngone was a beautiful, joyful little girl whose smile could brighten any room. Although she lived with cerebral palsy, her condition never defined the happiness and love she brought into the lives of those around her. She loved watching her favorite cartoons on TV, playing the drums, and sharing her infectious smile with everyone around her. No matter the day, Ngone always seemed to have a smile on her face. Her joyful spirit and the happiness she brought to her family are memories that will be cherished forever. To her parents, Abdoul Talla and Fatim Lo, Ngone was their precious daughter, a source of endless love, laughter, and joy. Her sudden passing has left her family, friends, and loved ones heartbroken. A beautiful life has been cut far too short, leaving behind a family facing a loss no parent should ever have to endure. As friends of the Talla family, we have created this fundraiser, with the family's permission, to support Abdoul, Fatim, and their loved ones during this incredibly difficult time. While nothing can replace their beloved Ngone or take away the pain of losing her, we can come together as a community to offer love, compassion, and meaningful support. Our hope is to help ease the financial burdens the family faces so they can focus on grieving, supporting one another, and honoring Ngone's beautiful life. All funds raised will go toward supporting the Talla family, including: Funeral and memorial arrangements to honor Ngone's life. Immediate household and family expenses during this difficult period. Additional financial support as Abdoul and Fatim take the time they need to grieve and begin healing. Every contribution, no matter the amount, will help provide comfort and support to a family navigating an unimaginable loss. In times of heartbreak, the kindness of others reminds us that no family has to face tragedy alone. We invite our friends, neighbors, colleagues, and everyone touched by Ngone's story to come together and surround the Talla family with love. Whether you are able to make a donation, share this fundraiser, or simply keep Abdoul, Fatim, and their loved ones in your thoughts and prayers, your support means more than words can express. Let us honor Ngone's memory by coming together with the same love and joy she brought into this world. May we always remember her beautiful smile, the sound of her drums, and the happiness she brought to everyone who knew her. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your generosity, compassion, and support. With love and gratitude, Friends of the Talla Family Rest in peace, sweet Ngone. ❤️ Forever loved. Forever remembered. Your beautiful smile will live on in our hearts. Learn More About Ngone's Story Ngone's tragic passing has touched the hearts of many in our community.
