Thank you for helping support Kari Soukup. We are seeking $3,000 for a specific purpose: to allow her to "buy back" the days needed in order for her to qualify for medical leave. Kari sustained severe injuries to one of her lower legs and ankles on March 17. She has 38 hours and needs 80 hours to get into the sick bank.

We are targeting April 28 as the goal date for Kari to have this money raised.

How she got here: On March 17, Kari tripped on her stairs at home as she was about to leave for school drop-off and work. Surgery to repair her fibula and ankle followed. Spring break occurred March 25-April 3, leaving us all to hope that she could get some much needed rest and recovery time. Due to the severity of her injuries, however, she has been home from work on doctor's orders ever since and now also is healing from a post-surgery blood clot as well as an additional surgery on her ankle on April 13.

As you know, Kari and husband Jason never would solicit these gestures of support, so we thank you on their behalf.  This campaign is only for people who ***are not burdened*** by giving what they can. 

If you are not able to help with this GoFundMe effort but want to help in another way, there also is a sign-up for friends and family to donate meals or food gift cards for Kari, Jason, and their three elementary-age children: http://bit.ly/2pyCcUY
