SUMMARY:An Evening with Lee Asher
DESCRIPTION:Lee Asher\, founder of The Asher House\, delivers a powerful and inspiring talk about his journey to saving animals\, INSPIRING PEOPLE\, and finding his true purpose in life. A prominent figure in the animal rescue community — with a massive social media following of more than 12 million people across platforms — he has used his influence to raise awareness about animal welfare and inspire countless individuals to make a difference in the lives of animals in need. His tireless dedication to rescuing dogs\, cats\, horses\, and other animals has earned him a reputation as a true champion for the voiceless. \n\n\n\nWith his infectious energy\, humor\, and powerful storytelling\, Asher continues to touch hearts and change lives\, both human and animal alike. During his live show\, he takes his audiences on a rollercoaster of emotions as he recounts his struggles\, failures\, and ultimate triumphs in building one of the largest animal sanctuaries in the United States. Asher’s talk is a testament to the transformative power of pain and the importance of turning resentment into gratitude. He encourages the audience to embrace their own struggles and use them as a catalyst for positive change\, reminding them that they have the power to be the savior they seek in their own lives\, and never give up on their dreams\, no matter how challenging the journey may be. \n\n\n\n$2 from every ticket will be donated to Oaken Acres Wildlife Center in rural DeKalb County that is celebrating their 40th anniversary. Their mission as a nonprofit organization is to provide care for injured and orphaned wild animals with a focus on releasing them into their native habitat. To date\, they have taken in almost 30\,000 wild animals since opening in 1984. Their slogan tells their story — Every Life Matters!
