Help for the Szymanski Family

Donation protected

Hi- my name is Michael Richards and I am raising money for the amazing Szymanski family of Sherborn, Massachusetts.


Monika and her children - Ola, Piotr, Jas, and Marysia - were blindsided this week by the sudden death of their cherished husband and father, Slawek. Slawek and Monika were married for 30 years. Slawek was a Polish immigrant whose extended family still lives in Poland. He was well known in the Dover-Sherborn community as a friendly, humble man who was completely and utterly dedicated to his wife and children. Slawek and Monika made the financial commitment to live in Sherborn to allow their children to take advantage of the great school system. Allowing his family to live in Sherborn required Slawek to commute back and forth between Sherborn and Philadelphia, PA, which he was more than willing to do for them. While he was gone, Monika managed the care of four children and worked locally as a dental hygienist. Their oldest daughter, Ola, also works to help support the family and younger siblings. The family raises chickens and grows their own vegetables, bringing the old-world ideals of hard work and self-reliance to their everyday life. The Szymanski family would never ask for help from anyone, and in this circumstance they are still not asking - they desperately need our help. Please consider giving if you can.
