Ashley Willson, a recent academy graduate and new member at ZOA, was the victim of a vehicle burglary at the Marriott in Fremont. The crime occurred immediately after arriving from the academy.

Now, settled into her apartment, she is without her laptop, her clothing and shoes. Her insurance offers only $250 on content replacement after the deductible.

Among the items taken were her backpack which contained her macbook, nintendo DS, portable GPS and all of her climbing gear. Also taken were most of Ashley's clothes, shoes, jewelry and her prescription sunglasses. She also lost irreplaceable items such as personal documents, family photos and mementos.

Ashley joined NATCA at the first opportunity and has shown her fellow academy graduates the camaraderie that exemplifies a NATCA member.

Moving to this part of California, an area with an extremely high cost of living on an AG salary is hard enough.

The Western-Pacific region would like to help Ashley in replacing her items and we are looking to NATCA members from around the country to chip in a couple dollars to help Ashley replace her stolen necessities.

A gofundme page has been established for donations. All monies contributed will go directly to Ashley.
