Our community once again came through! Together, we raised $8,014 for Oliviah and her family to help them navigate the long road ahead, complicated by spina bifida. We also are excited to share that Oliviah and her mother are now home! They came home on Monday, January 5th, and were able to see our light show in person Monday night.
Oliviah's mom, Colleen, writes:
"On behalf of my husband, Jonathan King, myself, and our children, I would sincerely like to thank every individual who came to see the Konkol's lights and support Oliviah's spinal bifida journey, as well as our family as a whole. I thank God for the loving and supportive community that we are a part of. Your contributions helped in more ways than one: they helped keep our family together by allowing us a means for seeing one another. They helped with bills and food, and will help get Oliviah to her numerous appointments. Thank you to the Konkol's for choosing to sponsor us this year and for putting on such an amazing show. When I saw her face on the screen I was brought to tears watching it and thinking about how supportive many people have been toward us and our daughter. I am so happy I was able to see it in person. After 3 months in the hospital, I am pleased to say that Oliviah and I are finally home. Oliviah still has a long journey ahead of her with her condition. There will be many specialist caring for her needs. Thank you again to everyone for all the support!"
See you again starting November 27, 2026!
