Cassandra Elise Emary, also now known as Cassanga, was a 23 year old, young female adventurer. She died on the 29th of November 2018 doing what she really loved, kayaking in Nepal. Surrounded by a community of people she dearly loved and who loved her, in a country she came to call her home. Cassanga’s story is like no other. It’s a story of love, passion, beauty, inspiration, determination, strength and courage.

She navigated herself through her short life and into her death with grace, love, beauty, honesty and integrity. To say we are, and always will be, proud of her is an understatement. Everyone that knows us knows this to be true.

Cassandra wrote in journals throughout her life and it is because of these journals we knew what we needed to do. She wrote about her travels, her passion, all the things she wanted to do in her life and the driving need to make a difference. She outlined how she planned to do this in her journals and the time frame in which she hoped to achieve it. We don’t know of any other young person who does this. She has given us clear direction and although she can no longer travel this path herself we intend to travel it for her so that her life has not been in vain. We will make our girl proud and through this foundation Cassandra Elise Emary certainly will make a difference!!

Cassanga wanted to make a difference. She was extremely passionate about empowering women. Our mission with the Cassanga Fund is to support & promote unity & genuine inclusion of women in the outdoor sports & the eco adventure community around the globe. To promote Environmental Protection, Equality, Passion, Safety, Honesty, Integrity, Trust and True Inclusion.
