love and support for the Marino family

Hello!  My name is Elena and I am fundraising for Sykes and her beautiful family.  Vella, has a spinal injury that is healing, but with time and no school ( for now) and medical care. Sykes put work on hold so she can care for Vella.  On top of injury and the necessary work hiatus for Sykes, the family also has to move from their home because their landlord is returning! Many stressful and expensive events in one season.
  If you are able to support this amazing family, I know it would really be a gift, a boost, a huge blessing in their lives. Rayne and Vella are surrounded by loving communities, and I know those communities Lee Elementary and AACNS (being two of them!), are mutually gifted with the kindness and love and joy the Marino family brings to their lives.  I am grateful to have them in my life, and for my child to count Vella as her  friend. 
I know as parents, we know the gravity of a child injured and times of uncertainty. Thank you all for your generosity of spirit and of resources, if you are able, and most of all of gifts of community and love.
