Support for Abri Seina "Barre" Fleischli
Donation protected
Thank you for taking the time to visit my Daughter's Go Fund Me Page. At 4am this morning I got a call and received several photos of a simply devastating barn fire that has erased ALL of my daughters equestrian equipment (and memories), 2 cats, a dozen chickens, a few ducks and a couple guinea pigs and so much more. ALL the horses survived and are safe and no-one was hurt. The fire is a complete and total loss...my daughter is my life and this is the only avenue that I could think of as a way to hopefully help her in building her memories back up!
Abri Seina "Barre" Fleischli is a super talented equestrian at only 15 years old. We gave her Roub Pony, a mini, for her 2nd birthday and still today and that was her first intro to horses! She helps train clients and horses. She spent nearly all of her time with her babies: horses, dogs, cats and so much more! She even had a pet Possum for awhile before his wild started to come out. She has attended countless equestrian events across the country and was always placing among the top riders in these events. She has recently "qualified" for an amazing Championship Equestrian event later this year in Pennsylvania!
Abri started at Pacific High School last year, having spent 9 years at The Fulton School, and the drive and determination she has learned in the horse world continues in her daily schedule today. She has an unbelievable talent with animals Big and Small. She has grown up so much and so fast and I am beyond proud of her.
To see her with all these feelings of sadness and loss I wish I could wave a wand and everything be ok! It just kills me inside and a sense of hopelessness has surrounded me.
Abri lost THOUSANDS of dollars in equipment for her horses and so many memories. She lost several new saddles, all of her horse tack, feed, hay and equipment, helmets, blankets and so very much more.
I'm not sure I am doing this Go Fund Me correctly. The feelings and emotions are kind of distracting.
I truly don't know how to put a price tag on everything that was lost. New memories will now need to be made.
I am putting this together in hopes that maybe I can raise some money to help her begin to build back. I am disabled with PTSD so my income is fixed and hard to makes ends meet sometimes. The best I can do is be there for Abri no matter what...she is super special to me and her pain is my pain.
As for what to use the money for, first and foremost. she will need a saddle, saddle pad, reigns, etc so that she can allow her passion to calm her. The equipment that was lost was worth many thousands of dollars. The money will be provided to Abri, for her to use to begin to build back. She is not an extravagant young lady...she is super down to earth, sweet as can be, beautiful, a real leader and talented in so many areas - and yes i an slightly biased!
You know, asking for donations is difficult. It is very humbling.
I appreciate everyone taking the time to read this and any support you can offer will mean the world to Abri. If you could also share this to friends and family it would be really meaningful.
Again, my sincere thanks for your time.
