Help Leslie and her boys rebuild their lives!

If you've been to STL-Style in the past 3 years you have probably met Leslie Wolff, one of the coolest, most valuable employees we've ever had. In a devastating turn of events, Leslie's house was destroyed over the weekend during the violent storms that ripped through the St. Louis metro area. A tornado touched down in Swansea, IL and sent a giant tree toppling directly onto the roof of her house. Had a person been in that room at that moment, this story would undoubtedly have had a much more horrific outcome. The house is a total loss.

Leslie is a single mom who works two jobs-- often with no days off for weeks at a time-- to provide a safe, loving, nurturing home for her greatest achievements- her two boys, Aidan and Tristan. We're so thankful no one was injured in the collapse, but rebuilding their lives after an event of this magnitude will be a very long and difficult road.

If there's one person who would do just about anything to help someone in need, it's Leslie. She is one of the most genuine people we've ever known. Never ONCE has she ever asked for help, even when things have gotten rough for her (more than once). But she doesn't have to ask, because we know that if the tables were turned, Leslie would be the one doing everything she could to rally the support of helping hands. She refuses to allow calamity to get her down or define her. Instead, she takes challenges in stride and keeps on going. At this time, we ask our loyal and compassionate audience to do what St. Louis has always done better than any place else-- pull together and look out for our own.

An unexpected disaster could happen to any of us at any time, without warning, and we could just as easily find ourselves suddenly picking up pieces of our lives we never thought could shatter. We're hopeful you can pitch in any amount to help this beautiful family begin the long and arduous journey of rebuilding after losing their home. Thank you so much, St. Louis.
