Vlada is our dear friend. Many of you know Vlada as an energetic DJ, an inspiring yoga instructor, and a good friend. She has touched the lives of so many people in our community. Now she needs that community around her.

Right now, her life feels as though it is falling apart. Her husband Earl has suffered a serious stroke, and she and their daughter are facing frightening uncertainty about what comes next.

The doctors are still assessing his condition, but the predictions are very worrying. Alongside being there for her husband and daughter, Vlada is facing immediate medical and other expenses. If the worst happens, she will have to begin rebuilding her whole life.

We’ve started this fundraiser to give Vlada some financial breathing room, both now and in the months ahead. Any donation or share will help. Thank you for being there for Vlada and her daughter.
