Our Mission
Moon Song is a non-profit organization established in memory of Trae Brownley. Our mission is to help young people recognize their worth and to provide creative opportunities that celebrate their voices.
Our Story
Trae was a wonderful young man, and his life brought so much warmth to everyone around him. On June 24, 2025, he tragically ended his life. Trae had graduated from Gettysburg High School and was preparing to study History at Shippensburg University that fall.
He was smart, funny, handsome, and caring - truly the kind of person who made others feel seen and valued. Everyone who knew Trae loved him, and his memory remains a comfort and a constant presence in the days that follow. Trae is missed every single day.
One of the tings we hold closest to our hearts is "Moon Song," the lullaby we would sing as a family throughout Trea's life. We hold this song in our hearts in hopes that Trae is able to see the moon that shines love on him - while it's also the same moon that shines on the ones he loves.
