Olive’s Bright Future

**UPDATE**

Desiree wanted to express how thankful her and Olive are for all the contributions they have received this far on here and through private emails (unfortunately the direct payment is not an option as it has proven to be too complicated).

If you can please continue to share and any further donations would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, my name is Michelle Lobsinger and I’ve been friends with Desiree for over 20 years. Any of you who know Desiree, know what a kind and compassionate soul she has. You would also know that she did not initially want me to set up this fundraiser. As many of you may know, James Maczko left this world suddenly and tragically on Wednesday, April 17th, leaving behind his beautiful and bold daughter Olive Rose Maczko. Anyone who has children (and even people who don’t) know how expensive it can be raising a child and planning for their best and brightest future. I am asking (and many people have asked Desiree herself how they could help and support) if you are able to please consider donating any amount - big or small to help towards Olives future and her education.

Olive has an RESP managed through CST Savings, and during Desiree’s conversation with her rep, Joanna Schiiler, a few options were discussed:

    1.    Direct contributions to this GoFundMe page, which will be added to a lump sum.

OR

    2.    Contributions sent directly to Desiree via email (her Gmail address is jdmaczko at Gmail.com). Desiree can then make a lump sum contribution to Olive’s plan, with Joanna reaching out via email expressing gratitude to each contributor.

A personal message from Desiree:

“The outpouring of love and support this past week has been overwhelming. James had a heart of gold, and witnessing how many lives he touched has been truly heartwarming.”

Thank you all ♥️
