Dear Ashlee, You are a wonderful person, but a super kid! I have been impressed since I first heard of you helping the children of the Angora Fire in Tahoe. I can’t find any other way to contact you, so I hope this reaches you soon. I have been helping a young mother who has a 3 year old girl, and a boy who turns 5 on October 17. Recently they were kicked out by the mother’s “boyfriend”, and he threw just a few of their items out in the street. I have collected donated items, and I have purchased beds etc. for the children, and I am only living on unemployment right now, so I really have no money to do any more for them.

To protect their identity, I’d rather not print any more details, but I would like to ask for some toys for both of them. They have been traumatized, and could really stand to be occupied with something fun since they have none of their own toys now. Ashlee, please email or have someone email me regarding these innocent children that had their world turned upside down in one night. I’d love to help them more, but I have no more funds! Thank you.
