I have been distraught since I received the email regarding Soror DG's sister. My prayers, condolences and well wishes go out to the Franklin family.

I won't even pretend to think I know what DG and her family are going through. The senselessness of it all is overwhelming. I am waiting to hear the arrangements for the memorial fund.

From: Soror DG
Dear all,
There have been an overwhelming number of family, friends, colleagues,
neighbors and community members who have expressed a desire to help
Nailah's family celebrate her life and establish her legacy. To give
voice to this, the Nailah O. Franklin Memorial Fund at The Chicago
Community Trust (one of the oldest, largest and most respected
community foundations in the U.S., and where I've worked for the last
three years) is now open and ready to receive contributions. This
donor advised fund will make grants to community organizations working
to help prevent violence and guide young people's educational and
social development.
If you would like to make a donation please do as follows:
Donors should make their checks payable to The Chicago Community
Foundation and write the "Nailah O. Franklin Memorial Fund" in the
Memo line of the check. Please ask donors to send their checks to
Carol Crenshaw at The Chicago Community Trust, 111 E. Wacker Dr., Ste.
1400, Chicago, IL 60601.
Best,
Lehia
ETA: Many have asked how they can contribute to the Nailah O. Franklin Memorial Fund. The Chicago Community Trust has now set up online payment so credit card payments can be accepted.
