Thank you Mariam for another outstanding tribute to our local ancestors. How wonderful to see this memorial and tribute becoming a reality. Kudos to everyone involved. P. S. How to make a direct donation and avoid the Go Fund Me surcharge?
This is a wonderful project, but I have to add that Napa Valley needs some huge memorial to all the native people who were massacred here. We may not know the grave sites or the exact details (because nobody was left to tell the story), but we owe it to our children to have a place (or places) where they can learn about the injustice that was done to thousands of indigenous people. If you've never heard of this, see An American Genocide by Madley.
where's the link to make a donation to the memorial?

Memory is important.
