About Us

 

SPARKLE – The Carla Gallup Foundation was founded in 2023 by Derek Gallup. Carla and Derek were married for 30 years and have a daughter, Christina and a son Tyler. Carla worked in the Fitness industry for 10 years prior to choosing to be a stay at home mom who successfully raised two great kids, one who graduated from UCLA and the other attends UC Berkeley.

 

In 2020, the US government shut down most positive outlets for mental health such as beaches, parks, churches and gyms and made businesses essential that masked pain with new addictions such as fast food, liquor stores, dispensaries, casino and strip clubs. At this time Carla (like many others) suffered from depression, anxiety and insomnia. During this time, we agreed that what happened was that Carla lost her SPARKLE. She fought valiantly for 2.5 years, but sadly lost her battle with mental illness in October of 2022.

As Derek and family found ways to deal with grief and loss, we found some amazing organizations to help with suicide prevention and survivors of suicide loss. However, we found that none of the organizations we connected with to have activity, fitness and nutrition as the key pillars to help with prevention and for survivors while helping to remove the stigma associated with mental illness. Our mission now was to turn pain into purpose.

​

The board of SPARKLE is made of up of an experienced team of leaders who have been affected by mental illness in their families including Chris Smith, CEO of Fitness World with 16 locations in Vancouver, CA and Mark Corey, President of Arrowhead Insurance Group in San Diego, CA.

​

SPARKLE is working to help the fitness industry create a larger impact on mental health by helping to raise awareness and funding for mental health and survivors of suicide loss programs. Additionally, SPARKLE will bring groups to fitness facilities and other recreational activities who will benefit from group activities including exercise, relaxation, education on helping topics such as nutrition, sleeping, meditation, therapy, community and more.
