The Oskaloosa community is helping a grieving family with a GoFundMe page after a couple was killed in a car accident in Mahaska County last week.

Tim Van Maaf started the page to benefit the family of Sy and Rachel Yang, who died after their vehicle struck the rear of a tiller implement that was being pulled by a tractor. Their children, who were also in the car, were injured and taken to Mahaska Health for treatment.

The GoFundMe has already surpassed its $30,000 fundraising goal, but donations are still being accepted here. Donations can also be made directly through SONshine Preschool (Rachel’s employer, located within Oskaloosa Christian School) and may be left at the office, or at Bethel Christian Reformed Church in Oskaloosa.
