Aid Michael Mazola's Family in Overcoming Hardship

Donation protected
Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted supporters,

We are reaching out to ask for your help for the Mazola family, who have been hit with a series of devastating events that have left them struggling to recover. Michael, his wife, and their children are currently facing an overwhelming crisis due to a severe mold infestation in their home that has made it uninhabitable. Their journey to recovery has been incredibly difficult, and they need our help now more than ever.

The Situation
The Mazola family’s home was recently infested with mold, causing extensive damage to the structure and rendering the house unsafe to live in. The family has been forced to move out and is now staying with different relatives in separate households while they wait for the situation to improve. Unfortunately, their son has also developed health issues, including respiratory problems from asbestos exposure in the home, which has required medical care.

What’s Been Lost
In addition to the damage to their home, much of the family’s personal belongings—furniture, clothing, and other essential items—were ruined by the mold. These items cannot be salvaged, and replacing them is a significant financial burden the family cannot bear alone. To make matters worse, the insurance company has refused to cover any of the damage or losses, leaving them without support.

A Heartbreaking Setback
As if things weren’t already difficult enough, the family’s home was recently broken into, and valuable tools they had been using to make necessary repairs were stolen. This theft has added yet another layer of hardship to an already overwhelming situation.

The Road Ahead
The home needs extensive construction and repairs before it can be safely inhabited again. Until then, the family is living in temporary housing, separated from one another. The financial strain of medical expenses, lost belongings, and the cost of repairs is something they simply cannot manage on their own.

How You Can Help
We are asking for your generosity to help the Mazola family rebuild and recover from this crisis. Your donations will go directly toward:

Covering medical bills for their son’s treatment related to asbestos exposure
Replacing lost furniture and personal belongings
Helping with the cost of necessary home repairs and construction to make the house livable again
Providing some financial relief during this difficult time
Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a meaningful difference. If you are unable to donate financially, please consider sharing this campaign with others who might be able to help.

The Mazola family is truly grateful for your kindness and support. Your generosity will help them begin to heal, both physically and emotionally, as they work to get back into their home and rebuild their lives.

Thank you for being there for them when they need it most.

With heartfelt gratitude,
Donate
