Hi there,

Ashley Patchen here, owner of Alchemy of Movement—a dance studio in Boulder, CO. We have always strived to build a place of community—a place where people genuinely support each other through thick and thin. Now is no different. One of our beloved dancers lost her home in the Marshall Fire, and many of our community members have loved ones who also lost everything.

We'd like to raise money to help our Alchemy family members rebuild. All proceeds from this fundraiser will be distributed directly to our dancers and loved ones who have lost their homes and have been greatly affected by this tragedy. We're hoping these funds will ease some burden to cover costs associated with rebuilding, legal help, deductibles, and buying the basic necessities that they've lost.

Thank you so much for your financial support now, and continued emotional support as we all mourn great loss as a community. Be kind and gentle to one another. We are truly in this together. Alchemy of Movement and Ashley Patchen will be matching funds up to $5,000 donated from the community to help your dollar go further.

With love, dance, and community,

Ashley Patchen
