Hello friends,
Today I am reaching out not in my role as Executive Director of EESF, but as a member of the vertical transportation community asking us to surround one of our own.
Many of you know Emerald Kuhns. She serves as Treasurer of the Elevator Escalator Safety Foundation and is also the Executive Director of NAESA International. Emerald is a leader, a steady presence, and someone who has given so much of herself to this industry and the people in it.
Emerald’s family is currently facing an unexpected medical emergency that requires a medical flight home. A GoFundMe has been established to help support these immediate and significant costs.
If you are able, I invite you to consider contributing. If you are not in a position to give, sharing this link or simply holding this family in your thoughts is meaningful too.

Important disclaimer for clarity and transparency:
This GoFundMe is not affiliated with the Elevator Escalator Safety Foundation. EESF does not receive any funds from this campaign. The GoFundMe is independently organized, and all donations go directly to the recipient through Emerald Kuhns.
Our industry is at its best when we show up for each other. This is one of those moments.
With gratitude,
Amber Catlin-Kolodziej
