Ellen DeGeneres Show Gives Pleasanton Couple $25,000
The NBC Show teams up with Shutterfly to help the East Bay couple
A couple from Pleasanton appeared on the Ellen DeGeneres show after they sent in a picture and video about an unexpected rent hike they were facing.
According to the video, Analisa, who is seven months pregnant, and her husband, Tony, sent DeGeneres a picture of their three-year-old son. Analisa works two jobs while going to school and Tony works as a welder.
The couple is expecting their second baby in January and recently found out their rent had been raised by $400 a month and were worried about making ends meet after the secon baby arrives in January.
DeGeneres and Shutterfly.com donated room decor for the new baby-to-be along with $25,000 to help them.
