On September 27, 2024 our beloved mountains were ravaged by Hurricane Helene, altering our landscapes, and our lives forever. The damage caused from this storm has made ever-lasting impacts on our mountain communities, with an estimated $59.6 billion in damages caused in WNC. We need your help to rebuild and recover. Small businesses across the region are facing economic challenges like never before, but you can support us and our neighbors. There are online resources to shop small and support WNC businesses.
