To honor Emily in the 20th year of her Foundation , the Sandall family donated warm coats and mittens to Blue Skies for Children. It is a non-profit organization in Bellingham, Washington, that supports homeless, low-income, and foster children. Mission: Raise hope and self-esteem by providing essentials and sponsoring enrichment programs (such as art, music, and sports lessons) for children ages 6 to 18 in Whatcom and Skagit Counties. I think that Emily would love this idea!

To honor Emily on her birthday, we are donating to the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness Foundation Trail Ambassador Program.They provide hikers the information and tools they need to care for their surrounding environment.Every wilderness user should have the chance to learn how to minimize their impact. Emily was an Outward Bound guide in Red Lodge and attended the University of Montana. She hiked often in the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness and was a wonderful steward of the land. We love you...
