"We are asking the community and all around to pull together and try to help this kind family out as much a you can in this time of need. Other donations will be excepted at our farm 153 Isabella Rd (gift cards, pillows, blankets, food, winter jackets, socks, underwear, toiletries anytime from 8-3."

In less than 24 she took to Facebook to announce they met the family's clothing needs. The GoFundMe had raised over $3,000 of a $5,000 goal.

People are invited to continue dropping off donations of toiletries, food, and gift cards to help the Aumen family begin to rebuild their lives.
