In Honor of Vita: Supporting Our Beloved Coworker Through Unthinkable Loss

With a Fund to help Lighten the Load

Due to many requests on how we can help…..

With a heavy heart, we’re inviting support for our dear coworker, Vita. In a span of ten days, Vita faced two unimaginable losses: the father of her children and her precious son. The suddenness of these events has left Vita navigating profound grief while also facing financial strain that makes returning to work in the near future very challenging.

Vita isn’t asking for help—she’s grateful for the care and support her coworkers and friends have shown over the years. We’ve created this fund to help alleviate immediate financial pressures so Vita can focus on beginning the slow healing process.

What the funds will cover:

-Essential living expenses

-Immediate needs for the family

-Day-to-day costs during this difficult period

-Any unforeseen expenses that may arise

-Support for caregiving and daily needs as Vita navigates the weeks ahead

Why we’re doing this:

Vita has consistently been the first to lend a hand, brighten a difficult day, and lift the team. This fund is a way for us, her extended work family, to stand with her as she navigates an incredibly hard time.

All contributions go directly to Vita to help meet her essential needs while she will need some time to grieve this incredible loss.

This fundraiser is organized by Jody Carey with Vita’s consent and with the support of friends and coworkers who want to help carry some of the burden during this time. If you’re able to contribute, any amount is appreciated and will be meaningful.

If you’re not able to contribute right now, sharing this campaign is a valuable form of support and greatly appreciated.

Thank you for standing with Vita and her family. Your generosity is a beacon of light during a dark time, helping them focus on healing at this time.
