Question
What's the cookie table and how can I contribute?
Answer
It's a famous tradition in Marek's hometown of Youngstown, OH to have a cookie table instead of or in addition to a wedding cake, and yes, we will be carrying this tradition on! While Mrs. Slipski and both our families will be hard at work baking for all our guests, we welcome you to also bring a batch or two of your own favorite recipe for the table. If you plan on contributing, send an email to marek.slipski@gmail.com so that we can have a plate ready for you!

Donation Links
Answer
We're excited to own a home one day that our family can grow in. We appreciate any contributions you're willing to make. Of course, we're not the only people finding it difficult to save up enough money to buy a home in California. Some changes at the state level will require cities to address this challenge over the coming years, but there's work to be done to hold them accountable and ensure housing of all affordability levels gets built. If you contribute to our down payment fund, consider also donating to YIMBY Law or Abundant Housing LA to make California more livable for everyone.
