MONONA, Wis. — A GoFundMe set up to support the family of a Monona Grove High School teacher who died unexpectedly last week has raised over $36,000.
Art teacher, Anime Club and Asian Club supervisor and tennis coach Charles Pyng collapsed while coaching a tennis match Thursday evening and later passed away, district officials said. He lived in Monona with his wife and three children.
Pyng’s death resulted in an outpouring of support and love from the Monona Grove community, culminating in a ‘Pink Out’ at last Friday’s home football game. Pink was Pyng’s favorite color.
On Saturday, one of Pyng’s friends set up a GoFundMe page to support his wife and children. The initial goal was to raise $10,000. As of Tuesday at 10:30 a.m., the page has raised $36,698.
