Dear Friends and Community,

We are reaching out to you with heavy hearts as our dear friends, Pete and Jeanne Szkolka, are facing an unimaginable challenge. Recently, Jeanne suffered a stroke and is currently bedridden, requiring extensive medical care and support. This tragedy has not only impacted their lives but also the lives of countless others within our community.

For many years, Jeanne has been a beacon of light as a dancer and the owner of a dance company, teaching thousands of children and adults the joy of dance. Pete, a talented sound engineer and musician, has poured his heart into his recording studio, contributing to the artistic spirit of our community. They have dedicated their lives to giving back, and now, it’s our turn to support them in their time of need.

Community support plays a crucial role in the recovery process, especially during individual challenges like this. Knowing that they are surrounded by a caring network can provide not only emotional strength but also practical assistance. By coming together, we can help alleviate some of the financial burdens they face, allowing them to focus on Jeanne's recovery and rehabilitation. Our collective support can create a positive environment that fosters healing and resilience.

We are aiming to raise $10,000 to assist with Jeanne's medical expenses and the potential need for a van for transportation. Every contribution, no matter how small, will make a significant difference in their lives as they navigate this difficult journey.

Please consider donating to help Pete and Jeanne during this challenging time. Your generosity will not only provide financial support but will also show them that they are not alone in this battle.

Thank you for your compassion and support!

With gratitude.
