Friends Rally a Nevada Community to Support Mother Left Behind After Two Sons Were Tragically Taken
RENO, Nev., Nov. 11, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Just two days after two children and one man were found dead from gunshot wounds in a Reno, NV home, the community has come together to support this family by raising more than $20,000 in less than 24 hours with an online fundraising campaign on MoveYourMountain.org.

Started by a group of friends who wanted to do something to show Ashley Deane, the mother, how much they cared about her - an online fundraising campaign was created and a call to action was sent out through social media.
Taken directly from the campaign page, "This page represents a symbolic solution, for any contribution large or small will help Ashley feel enshrouded in the love and support she needs right now to weather this catastrophic storm.
Please share this request far and wide. Because while Ashley is our Reno neighbor, she is also a neighbor in humanity; in motherhood; in life.
This is just one simple gesture, but it is a gesture offering very tangible assistance to our friend and neighbor, Ashley Dean."
Deane's friends have also embraced Facebook to create a page, "Friends of Ashley Deane" and have organized a vigil to be held Sunday, November 16th, at 6pm.
The funds donated to Ashley Deane's Move Your Mountain campaign will go directly to her to be used for funeral expenses, counseling, and for covering household expenses while she is out of work.
If you or someone you know has to deal with such a tragedy, Move Your Mountain is there help support those in need by providing the right platform to raise money.
