Nate Evans - Foundation Launch
Hi again,
This is Brandi, Nate’s mom. I wanted to share with everyone the gift me and my family have been working on for Nate for Christmas. Every year on Christmas Eve my kids would open one gift. It was a tradition. We don’t do traditions anymore. Nothing is the same without Nate. But today we decided to give him a gift. To honor him and his life and the amazing angel he was here on earth. For anyone that spent even a few minutes around him, you know that to describe him as love and light is a gross understatement, but still as close as our language allows.
It’s been a hellish 21 months since his beautiful life was stolen, but we must believe that love never dies and therefore,
Nate lives.
Today, for my sweet son, we give him the gift of honor, of remembrance, of legacy and of promise. We promise, through his foundation, as long as we are breathing, we will continue what Nate began in spreading love and light.

Thank you, Brandi. Are we free to share this...get the word out?
You're living my worst nightmare; I just can't comprehend the constant pain. Stay strong.

RE: Nate Evans - Foundation Launch
Yes, please feel free to share. For as long as I breathe I must share his love & light. But without a doubt it is the worst nightmare possible, far worse than the nightmares I’m plagued with on a regular basis, is the reality that my son, my life, my love, my guy, the love of my life, my universe is no longer with me ?

RE: Nate Evans - Foundation Launch
In addition to financial contributions given to organizations that support the mission, this giving season, the Nate Evans Love & Light Foundation packaged and gave away 50 beanies (Nate loved his beanies) to young victims of violence and 30 books to underserved elementary children.
How can you help Nate’s Foundation & our family?
1 - look at his website and educate yourself on the purpose of his foundation and read “Nate’s story”
2 - share his foundation on all of your social media
3 - participate - either by donating or offering support through partnerships and/or ideas that align with Nate’s mission
4 – add The Nate Evans Love & Light Foundation to your AmazonSmile account so that each time you shop, a portion of your purchase will go to the Foundation
http://smile.amazon.com/ch/85-1250509
5 - if you knew Nate and/or were impacted by his life and/or death, message me for details on how you can write an impact statement to assist in bringing justice for his murder

Brandi,
Sending continuous prayers to you and your family during this difficult time. I can get more of the NE3 Bracelets and we can sell them at the games for the fall and have the proceeds go to the foundation. Let me know your thoughts!
One Tribe One Family!
