A Sparks girl who collects new toys for children who have lost their home will be on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" today.
Ashlee Smith, 10, appears on an episode of Winfrey's show that deals with heroes in hard times.
The show airs on KOLO TV Channel 8 at 4 p.m.
Ashlee started "Ashlee's Toy Closet" and has appeared in national publications. She also appeared on "The Bonnie Hunt Show" on Dec. 18.
For the past two years, the Toy Closet program has provided new toys to hundreds of children who have lost their homes to devastating fires and floods in Nevada and California. Ashlee delivered toys to children after the May 16 apartment fire in Reno and is currently raising money and toys for children in the Santa Barbara fires.
Ashlee's goodwill was spurred by her own experience with fire. When she was 6 years old, the family's home burned and she lost most of her belongings.
Great job and Congratulations Ashlee!
