The fundraiser aims to assist with Rejniak’s medical expenses, potential loss of income and other hospital bills during what Ashley called “a very scary time.” Ashley encouraged contributions of any amount, including messages of support.

“We will update soon with information,” Ashley said. “Thank you all for your help.”
