<div>My aunt and uncle, Donna and Rob, lost everything in the Spokane Old Trails fire. Donna, pictured in purple, is one of my mom's sisters. Anyone who knows Donna knows the light she adds to a room. Donna is the kind of person who makes a neighborhood feel like home just by being there. Donna walks miles every day and has built friendships all over the community through kindness, optimism, and the simple habit of bringing treats for the dogs along the route. Donna has spent a lifetime giving joy to others, decorating for every holiday, making people smile, and reminding everyone around them not to sweat the small stuff. Now, after retiring, Donna and Rob are facing the unimaginable and starting over from nothing.

</div>
<div>This fundraiser is to help Donna and Rob with immediate needs and necessities as they begin to rebuild their lives. Support from family, friends, neighbors, and anyone moved by their story will help them take those first difficult steps forward after losing their home and everything inside it. Any amount will make a difference and help them feel cared for, supported, and less alone during this heartbreaking time. Thank you for caring about Donna and Rob and for helping them begin again with hope.

Families caring for children with multiple disabilities

Attention Oside and all world wide: My good friend, Shawn Ambrose and his beautiful German Shorthair Pointer pup Bella, were recently in a bad wreck. Shawn has multiple injuries including a busted ankle, eye trauma, and a concussion. Bella, his beloved shop dog that everyone knows and loves has sustained multiple injuries as well. Her vet bills are already at $18k and will climb further in order to make a full recovery. For those of you that don’t know Shawn Ambrose at Real Surf Shop in Oceanside, CA let me fill you in; Shawn has always been the first one to jump in and help out their community. Shawn has donated his time, his resources, and his heart and soul to anyone that has needed it. If you needed the shirt off his back, he’d give it to you, he can print more! when the pandemic hit, he was the first one to rally the community and really push to support local businesses, he designed and printed thousands of “Oside Takes Care Of It’s Own” stickers and distributed them to businesses and people throughout the community for free to let us all know who we are and how we do! Now is the time to truly take care of our own. I beg and plead of you to please, donate and share this GoFundMe and help out a friend to us all! This is a long road to recovery and to financial, business, &amp; personal stability- but together we can make this happen for them! Shawn has been building the Real Surf dream for over 20 years and we gotta keep it going! Shawn and Bella, we love you and you got this!!  #OsideTakeCareOfItsOwn For the better part of two decades, Shawn Ambrose at Real Surf has been a big part of the Oceanside community. Shawn has always been quick to lend a hand, donating both his time and resources to help out Oside locals in need. Ambrose has always shown through his actions that "Oside Takes Care of Its Own" and now is the time to help him out in this tough time. As a result of a serious car accident, Shawn has sustained multiple injuries including a busted ankle, concussion, eye trauma and lots of cuts and bruises. His dream van is totaled. But worst of all, Bella was badly injured in the accident with the vet costs stacking up quickly… so far reaching a staggering $18k and counting.
 Anything you can do to contribute is very much appreciated. Please donate, stop by the shop to buy something, put in an order for shirts for your business, and share this fundraiser to show your support Shawn and Bella.

Help Real Surf’s Shawn Ambrose & Bella recover

Please visit <a href="../savingeliza" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">our new campaign</a> to continue supporting the fight for children with Sanfilippo Syndrome.  The campaign on this page is no longer accepting donations due to GoFundMe changing payment processors.  Please visit the new page at <a href="http://www.SavingEliza.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">www.SavingEliza.com</a> Every single dollar raised here has, and continues to go to Cure Sanfilippo Foundation, a 501c3 nonprofit (tax ID: 46-4322131).  Donations are tax deductible.  Cure Sanfilippo has a mission to advocate and fund research directed toward a cure or treatment options for children with Sanfilippo Syndrome.  In short, we fund research to save children via treatments &amp; clinical trials.  No dollars ever go to or for any particular family or child.   We tell individual stories, for the greater cause and mission....which is to cure this terrible fatal brain disease in little children, often referred to as a Childhood Alzheimer's.  Our deepest and humble thanks for visiting this page and considering support.  You are our hero!   Glenn O'Neill (Dad, Donor and President of Cure Sanfilippo Foundation)  [email redacted] (anytime) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our Story It all started back in 2014, with this 3 minute video:   <iframe media_type="0" media_id="G0IY8qG7J-I" class="youtube-replace" title="YouTube video player" style="margin-bottom:20px;width:560px;height:315px;" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/G0IY8qG7J-I/?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="1"></iframe> Now, we truly believe we are witnessing a miracle.  What else can explain more than 36,000 people already donating more than $2 million dollars, over the past 2 years, to fund a chance at life for our daughter Eliza and other children. Diagnosed 3 years ago with Sanfilippo Syndrome —a terminal disease sometimes called “Childhood Alzheimer's”— Eliza has now become the first child in the world to have been given this new treatment!  The second child has also been treated and in the coming months &amp; through next year, a few handful more children around the world will be part of this groundbreaking gene therapy clinical trial that is already showing promising results. The WORLD decided to rally around our little girl for this greater cause, and she’s become the face of this disease…a symbol for Sanfilippo parents everywhere not to give up HOPE.  And we’re not giving up on them either. Many more children are still fighting, and we won’t stop until every last one of them is afforded a chance at life. There are more children that need this treatment than there are available spots in clinical trials, and these precious little ones can’t wait. Given the rapidly degenerative nature of Sanfilippo Syndrome, not receiving a treatment, and soon, is a death sentence.  Can you imagine being one of these parents? Since treatment, we see a new light in Eliza’s eyes— she is connecting with us in a way we thought was gone forever. She is working to regain the skills the disease stripped away in the 6 and half years it tore through her body.  She is a fighter!  Other Sanfilippo children deserve this chance too. At this stage, funding is one of the only things that will accelerate research to give these children a chance. Money doesn’t make the world go round, but it does bring medical treatments faster to children who are dying. Our goal is to reach $4M here to help make this happen. Please donate TODAY to give these beautiful Sanfilippo children a rightful chance at life.  Please share so the world can hear their collective voices. Our hearts are forever thankful for giving our daughter Eliza and others a chance at life.  We are reminded of one quote from a special supporter that has helped us through the hard days: “Keep the faith, and the faith will keep you”.  We believe!
