My name is Austin "Ace" Edwards. You may know me from either my show, the Aggieville Alleycats podcast, or just as a person in day-to-day life. I've had the honor of calling many of you who are looking at this page my friends. I know that many of you have struggles and problems in your own lives, but I am ask you all to help out some of the most deserving people I have ever known.

To cut to the chase, the people who made me who I am today, my parents, Doug and Krista Hale, have been struggling. Through no fault of their own, they have accrued a massive amount of debt, most of it being medical. One of them had to have a major procedure in St. Louis in order to treat a heart issue, and ever since then they have been struggling.

My mother has had to get 3 separate jobs, and has started selling off some of her things, most notably her Precious Moments collection she has already had to sell off once in her life.

I say all of this to get one point across: these are good people. These are the people who raised me with the values of kindness, respect, generosity and hard work. But even good people need help. And that's exactly what I am ask you all to do on their behalf.
