My name is Becky Coffeen, and I have been friends with Jennie Schaden for over 25 years. My family and I are committed to supporting Jennie, her husband Eric, and their son Logan during this challenging time. They rented a home in Appleton, WI, in 2016, but unfortunately, the landlords neglected the property for too long. As a result, the property became a dangerously toxic environment.

From 2018 to 2022, the Schadens repeatedly notified the landlords about ongoing issues, including water damage, mold, septic problems, window issues, and more. Their failure to perform essential repairs, combined with extreme negligence and a complete disregard for Jennie's family's health and safety, has resulted in significant property loss and severely impacted their well-being.

The family is seeking help to rebuild their lives, cover litigation expenses, and raise awareness about the dangers of mold. They aim to advocate for proper maintenance of rental properties and highlight the health risks associated with mold exposure.

The costs related to their upcoming four-day jury trial on April 21, 2026, could reach up to $100,000. Jennie’s family should not be responsible for covering these costs because of their negligence.

We kindly request your support through donations. Every contribution, no matter how small, will directly help the family during this challenging time. Let’s come together to support them as they seek hope and advocate for changes in landlord-tenant laws. Together, we can fight for what’s right.

Thank you for your generosity.
