Shar Schaffeld

Community involvement has been a big part of both my personal life and my career. For many years, I've worked with individuals and families who are trying to overcome difficult circumstances, especially when financial hardship is part of the picture. I've volunteered my time providing financial and credit education, worked with community programs, and helped people who simply needed someone willing to advocate for them.

One cause especially close to my heart has been supporting survivors of domestic violence and human trafficking. I've provided pro bono credit and financial advocacy services to survivors and have worked with the Nampa Family Justice Center to help people rebuild the financial side of their lives after abuse.

I've tried to make community service less about getting recognition and more about seeing a need and doing something about it. That's a huge part of why Warm Hearts means so much to me.

Ashley West

I am a wife, mom of six boys, entrepreneur, and longtime member of the Treasure Valley community. Family has always been at the center of my life, and I bring that same sense of loyalty, compassion, humor, and determination into the causes I choose to support.

This mission is especially personal to me. Growing up as a military brat with a father who served in the Army for 32 years gave me a firsthand appreciation for the sacrifices made not only by service members, but by the families who serve alongside them. Supporting veterans is more than simply a cause I believe in, it is something deeply connected to the way I was raised and the people I love.

I am also a survivor of domestic abuse, giving the organization's mission another deeply personal meaning. My own experiences have given me an understanding of how important it is for survivors to have support, resources, community, and people willing to stand beside them as they rebuild their lives. I hope to use those experiences not to be defined by what I have been through, but to help create something meaningful for others who may be facing their own difficult chapters.

I try to bring creativity, a willingness to jump in wherever I am needed, and a genuine love for bringing people together. Whether I am helping organize an event, working behind the scenes, or dreaming up an idea that inevitably becomes a much bigger project than originally planned, I believe some of the biggest differences we can make begin simply by showing people that they matter and that they are not alone.
