Hello, my name is Ash Watson. On December 20th my home caught fire. In a matter of moments, everything I depended on for safety and stability was gone. I am currently unable to return home and am trying to figure out what comes next.

Right now, I am facing the very real uncertainty of not having a place to live. I am in need of both temporary and permanent housing, along with help replacing the most basic essentials such as, clothing, personal items, and household necessities that were lost in the fire. It’s been overwhelming to process, especially during the holiday season, when everything around you emphasizes comfort, family, and home.

If you are able to help in any way, please know that your kindness truly matters. Any contribution, no matter the size, helps me feel less alone in this and brings me closer to stability and safety. Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for holding space for me during this difficult moment.
