The Family of Revell Andrews
Donation protected
Thank you, thank you, thank you for your support! Please watch this video of thanks from Glen David Andrews on behalf of Revert Peanut Andrews and the family.
Your support successfully covered Revell’s funeral expenses. Thank you. Any additional funds received in this GoFundMe will be used to begin a program in his memory. It will bring New Orleans youth to Vermont in the summers. Details are a work in progress and will be shared shortly.
-----------------------
Revell Andrews, a vibrant, beautiful, young New Orleanian, died tragically on Monday, June 26th - the innocent victim of senseless violence.
Revell's parents, Revert 'Peanut' Andrews Sr. and Deanna Powell Andrews, along with their extended families, will be unexpectedly bidding farewell to their beloved son, brother, nephew, cousin, grandson and friend.
Please consider contributing to this fundraiser to help cover some of the expenses they will incur. Funds raised will be used to cover Revell's funeral costs and related expenses.
Dear family friend, Katy Reckdahl, wrote a lovely tribute - Revell Andrews, Picture of Potential - that shares the story of Revell's beautiful life. Please read it here. And a recent anti-violence video with Revell (on tuba) and Glen David Andrews.
Thank you for any support you're able to share and please keep the Andrews family in your hearts and prayers. If you are able to donate thank you for generosity. If you're not able to, please share with those that may be able to or have a strong connection to the family.

Update | Sunday, July 2
Peanut and Revell's family are most grateful for the outreach, kind words, love and support you've shared. After some inquiries about additional donations, we have increased goal. Funds raised beyond Revell's funeral expenses will be used to begin a fund in Revell's honor to bring New Orleans youth to Vermont in the summers for 1 or 2 weeks. More details as the program takes shape. With love and thanks.

Update | Friday, June 30
Heartfelt thanks to everyone who has so generously and kindly contributed to this fundraiser to cover funeral expenses for Revell. The outpouring of love and support is a reflection of the beautiful communities that surround Revell and his family.
We are still working to meet our goal, so if you are inclined to share this in your networks, that would be lovely. Thank you.

Why I'm organizing | I'm blessed to be among the innumerable people fortunate enough to count Peanut and Glen David as friends and want to help in any way possible. This seems like a small way to share support for them and their family in this time of heartbreak.

Information for full transparency:
