A worthy cause

Dear Axiom and Jefferson residents, 

I am writing this e-mail to draw your attention to an important matter. I appreciate any and all of your support. I am reaching out  in regards to a cleaning lady who works in the building. Her name is Marisol. She has been working cleaning this building since the Axiom opened its doors. She is an extremely hard worker from El Salvador. Marisol fractured her arm two weeks ago. In the interim she had a replacement. Marisol is contracted through a company called Beltway, so she in not a Greystar Axiom employee. When she came to return to work after her arm had somewhat healed she was fired by the new Property Manager, Nicole Williams. Marisol's contract company notified her that the Axiom did not want her to return. She was given no explanation and because her English is not good she could not fight or defend herself. She called me for help. I went down this Monday to the leasing office demanding some answers. I was told it was none of my business and this was a business management decision. I argued that you cannot just fire somebody without a just reason. I have contacted the contract company Beltway, and they have had more compassion. I spoke with the owner and manager there. He said they are trying to place Marisol somewhere else, but that currently nothing is available and the soonest may not be until December. Marisol has hospital bills to pay for from her injured arm, and now has zero income. She is in a very bad situation. I wanted to bring this matter up first and foremost to the community and to ask for your support. I have been in contact with Talib, as he has been an instrumental leader in helping to regulate and inform us on so many issues. Taib and I will continue to work and obviously fight hard on this matter. 

I will be doing everything I can on my part following up with Beltway to see if Marisol can and will be placed somewhere else sooner than later. In the meantime here's what you can do to help:

If you would like to hire Marisol and have your apartment cleaned please contact me and I can set that up for you. She would do an excellent job and obviously this would help her to get by for the time being. Also, I am accepting any donation you may have to help her out. No donation is too small. You may email me at vanessa.camozzi@gmail.com or drop it in an envelope at my door, or at the front desk if you wish. Please just call or e-mail me and let me know so that I can look out for it. Thank you all very much. Please do not hesitate to contact me. I know that we are all extremely busy with our personal lives, but I ask for your  compassion and to really help someone in serious need.
