For Amber Zavala, it was just an attempt to help her godmother. It turned out to be a hard lesson, when the collection jars she set out were stolen.
Zavala, who lives in Evans, said her godmother has stage-four cancer and doesn't want her name in a story. Zavala set out collection jars in several businesses last week, hoping to collect enough to help pay for medications for her godmother.

“It's hard enough for my godmother to make it nowadays,” Zavala said. “Now someone stole from her.” She said her godmother is a truck driver, has no health insurance and has difficulty meeting medical expenses and paying for prescriptions.
“She and her husband drove for a trucking firm for many years,” Zavala said, “But now she's sick, and her husband can't drive because he's staying at home to take care of her. That's why we set out the jars.”
