Yun Yi Zhang was a Navy Reservist. As far as i understand her children have many benefits coming her way because of her affiliation with the United States Navy Reserve. In order to recieve these benefits and help with funeral arrangments, funeral honors etc. they must approach Yun YI’s reserve center in Alameda.

A community is more than just a place where you live. A community is made up of the people around you. A community can become that thing you rely on when tragedy strikes. We are all painfully aware of the tragic murder of YunYi Zhang, on March 14 in her home in Castro Valley, right here in our community. Her daughters are now on a long journey of healing.
The Mi sisters are part of our community. Whether or not you know the girls, or whether or not you knew YunYi Zhang, their mother, they are a part of our community. We have an opportunity to show the sisters our support as they rebuild their lives.
The Mi sisters have received incredible support from their swim team, the East Bay Bat Rays. Teammates rallied around the sisters days after the tragedy, embracing them and reassuring them that they were surrounded by love. This is what community does. The swim team board has set up a charitable account for them at Wells Fargo in Hayward.
If you wish to make a donation, please send a check to Mi Fund PO Box 2131 Castro Valley, Ca. 94546.
Let us all show these girls that their story is not just a tragic story in our community. Let us show them that their well-being matters to us all, that we are a community with compassion.
