Rugs for Rugrats
Donation protected
$539 so far... So proud of fairfield! The money is great, but it's the love is that's making them strong.
This is a fundraiser for rugs for a very special Fairfield family soon to move into their Habitat for humanity house. Chad and Madeline are amazing artists keeping their creativity alive while sorting out supporting a newly expended family of twins and a 5 year old. Up until recently Chad was working two jobs while doing volunteer hours working on their Habitat for Humanity house and trying to keep his art practice and career development on track. Exhaustion is an understatement... They could really use a little help keeping their joy torch lit.
The new house has concrete floors. Some nice rugs would be a great Fairfield Rug Hug! Save the baby knees!
Can you contribute a bit toward some rugs for the Starlings? Also, if you have rugs or furniture you think they could use please call me (Inga) at [phone redacted]... or email me ([email redacted]vard.edu). Also, if could you please please forward this link to anyone else you know who might want to help and post on facebook etc.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for helping make this a very special Fairfield community house warming!

Creating art together led to creating Kai together...
Kai was born June 6, 2014
And then, in 2018, Fox and Simone.
Being artist parents is a monumental undertaking... only possible with the love and support of their Fairfield community. They qualified for a Habitit for Humanity house that will be ready to move into around the end of this month (June).
Still in love after so much stress...
What Chad posted on facebook for their 5th anniversary:
"Darling Madeline, words are inadequate to express the feelings of love, connection and wholeness I have in you. We’re like two pillars grounded in the earth. We’re like two trees whose branches intertwine not knowing where one begins and the other ends. My partner, my twin flame, my best friend. I love you with an eternal light. Five years only represents a sliver of our eternal relationship. Every creating, ever changing. If all of what we’ve accomplished together in such a short amount of time is a picture of what’s to come, baby, we’re blessed with such prosperity. I love you! My heart is yours.. your love, Chad."
May they infect us with the strength of their love.
The House should be ready to move into around the end of this month. Let's help make it a home made of love.
