Mount Mitchell near Asheville, North Carolina

Asheville Needs Our Support

My heart is heavy as I share the news of the devastation that has hit the Western North ​Carolina Mountains, including my beloved hometown of Asheville. These mountains, ​which have given us beauty, peace, and so much more, are desperately in need of our ​help. The destruction has left many families, friends, pets and entire communities ​devastated. Those that survived will struggle to rebuild. Homes have been lost, ​businesses shattered, and the land we cherish is scarred. But in times like these, we ​come together, stronger than ever.


I’m asking—pleading—for your support. If you’ve ever been touched by the magic of ​these mountains, please consider donating to help those who need it most. Every ​dollar makes a difference. Let’s stand together and show the true spirit of love and ​resilience that defines us.


Please donate, share, and spread the word. Together, we can heal the heart of these ​mountains.


With gratitude and hope,

Terri
