Help Ash 'Smasha' Graham rebuild his home.

Donation protected
Hello all and thanks for following the link to get here. So myself and many others are wanting to raise some well needed money for Ash 'Smasha' Graham after he lost everything apart from his pop up trailer and troopy in the fierce and unforgiving bush fires that ripped through Nerrigundah around New Years day 2020.  Ash was currently extending/renovating his dwelling and not only lost the main structure lost all of the vital materials to do so.  He also lost generators, water pumps, mowers , and many many other things needed when living off the grid. Ash has been part of the Nerrigundah Rural Fire Service (RFS) since moving down there many years ago and if you know Ash loves to do his bit for his community. Unfortunately while Ash was out fighting fires with the crew he returned to the shed and his beautiful dog Kozi had gotten out of the shed and was no where to be seen.  Absolutely gutted after losing his home and his beloved dog Kozi Ash still dug deep and began serving his community again with the RFS crew. This is a prime example of the type of person he is and why im proud to call him a close friend. As some may know Ash is no stranger to great loss in life after losing Mel his wife to cancer only 15mths ago, and now the massive fires we havnt seen in Australian history take all he and Mel had built together. I ask and urge all of you reading this to help Ash rebuild the dream he and Mel once had at the property in Nerrigundah. This GoFundMe will be the foundations of Ashs future on the block and he is determined to rebuild and get on with his life and keep on keeping on. So i have been a close friend of Ashleys since the 90s and have both shared our passion for the snow and have lived in Jindabyne for many years where i still reside today. The money raised will be a huge help towards Ash rebuilding his home and will no doubt include such things as Generator, water pumps, water tanks, basic solar panels to charge batterys etc, mowers whiper snippers, tools, and all of your general household items. I intend to have GoFundMe put the donations into my bank account and then deposit them straight into Ashleys account when our goal is reached. From myself and more so Ash and his family thanks for donating and the love and support he has recived so far.
