St. Stanislaus Kosta Council #12423 recently presented a $1,500 check to Karleigh Zmikly of Sanford, who suffered severe burns in an accident in April, 2022.

The ORV that Karleigh was riding with her boyfriend Carter overturned and caught fire, trapping them in the wreckage. Friends were able to free Karleigh, despite suffering burns themselves during the rescue. She was hospitalized for several months, and has endured 15 different surgeries so far, with more to come, yet her recovery so far has been remarkable!

Karleigh’s family also suffered losses in the 2020 Midland area dam failures , yet through it all their faith remains strong.

Council #12423 is proud to stand in Unity with Karleigh and her family as she continues her recovery. We thank the parishioners of Our Lady of Czestochowa and our patrons, whose support of our fundraisers enables our charitable work!
