Support Olga :: Hope after Car Crash

Donation protected
Hey friends,

We are raising funds to vitally help Olga, a long-time Encinitas resident, following a severe car accident that was none of her fault. Olga's car was totaled, and she was left with injuries and insufficient insurance compensation.

Background:

Olga, an active community member, trusted housekeeper, and dedicated grandmother, has been a vital part of Encinitas for many years. In March, her life changed dramatically when a distracted teenager collided with her car at a red light, resulting in total loss of the vehicle and significant physical injuries. The insurance settlement of $4,000 does not cover the costs of her medical care or allow her to replace her car.

Current Situation:

At over 60 years old, Olga now faces the challenge of fulfilling her house cleaning duties by walking across Encinitas. The inadequacy of the at-fault party's insurance payout has left her without a vehicle and with mounting medical expenses.

Our Goal:

We, Yann and Sheri, are initiating this fundraiser to help Olga purchase a modest used car from CarMax. This will not only restore her ability to travel for work but also provide her with some independence and dignity after the accident.

Call to Action:

We invite the Encinitas community and beyond to contribute to this campaign. Every donation, no matter the size, will help Olga regain a part of her life that was unjustly taken from her. Let’s come together to support Olga in this time of need.

Appreciation:

Thank you in advance for your support. Every contribution brings Olga closer to mobility and recovery.

With gratitude,

Yann and Sheri

What Olga means to us: Olga has been working with our family for over 15 years, and is considered part of our family. She's seen our kids grow and been loyal and honest throughout the years. She is selfless and cares so much about people, routinely collecting items to bring to Tijuana to help migrants and less fortunate families in the South Bay. She is a dedicated mother and grandmother, although family dynamics are very complicated. She has been left to fend on her own, and it breaks our hearts that this single accident has derailed any hope of returning things to normality.
