Xenia was kind enough to let us know about a very sad situation involving a member of the designer toy community. Ally ("Wacko") is a longtime toy collector and Kidrobot board member. Recently her 2.5 year old daughter Ava was diagonsed with a rare form of Cancer. KR Board members, celebs, artists and others are pitching in to help ease the tremendous heatlh care expenses involved in treating Ava and getting her healthy. There are at least two main ways you can help out if you’d like : donate money directly or donate art or a toy-related item which will then be auctioned to help pay some of Ava’s healthcare costs. Monetary donations can be sent via Paypal to avajaymes@gmail.com. If you’d like to mail a monetary donation or toys for the auction (or for Ava herself) please send it to:
ava cipriani
852 n. occidental blvd.
silverlake, ca.

The official list of donations and the latest information can be found on this KR board thread. We’ll be thinking about Ava and her parents and pulling for a complete recovery from this terrible disease.
