Support Our Small Business Community Rebuilding Fund

Donation protected
Hello, all. My name is Katie McWeeney. I am a small business owner and resident of Old Fort, NC, and I am collecting direct relief funds for members of our small business community affected by Hurricane Helene. Specifically, this fund will focus on core businesses that serve the downtown Old Fort area around town hall on Catawba Ave. and Main St. The devastation of our small town is enormous. Many have lost family, homes, and small businesses.

Through this GoFundMe, we can provide $5,000 direct funding to 18 small business owners in Old Fort, NC, needing immediate remediation and relief from damaged property, lost business supplies, equipment, income, and wages.


Any contribution is valuable. If our goal is not reached or if exceeded, we will distribute funds equally among all businesses. Thank you for your help and support!

Update (10/12/2024): Our goal is now includes three additional businesses (originally 15 when started, now 18,) plus 3% GFM transaction fees.
