We have all had our hearts broken as we’ve witnessed the catastrophic events that have hit Tennessee and our beloved North Carolina mountains. As a parent whose own son is a resident of Asheville, it has been an especially stressful time. Thankfully our son is safe and only experienced minor flooding in his basement. However, he is still dealing with no running water and a long road of clean-up ahead. We are extremely fortunate compared to so many and our thoughts and prayers go out to our TN and NC neighbors and for those with family in the region.
After sitting here in Raleigh for a few days feeling extremely helpless and sad, I was suddenly hit by a strong need to do more to help those devastated by Hurricane Helene. I have created a collection of products designed to raise funds for the relief efforts in Western NC. For every product purchased, I will be donating 100% of the after-tax proceeds to the NC DISASTER RELIEF FUND (www.ncdps.gov).
If you are able, please consider supporting our NC neighbors in need either through a product purchase or via a direct donation to the NC Disaster Relief Fund or a charity of your choice.
