Help Ebb & Flow Recover from Helene

We are the owners of Ebb & Flow Massage Therapy Center, your local independent neighborhood massage place. We have been here on Haywood Road for 10 years, with the same owners that opened it up; Lauren Loiacono & Adam Caddick. We are very lucky that our building remained intact during Helene. But almost 3 weeks later, we still have no water. Our staff has suffered financially, with only some of them even able to receive the $750 check from FEMA. We the owners were not able to take any pay either, and are living on credit cards and the goodwill of our community, like many others. October's rent on our building is still due, and November's rent will be a challenge as well. Given these circumstances, we are humbly asking our community to help us pay our staff what they've lost, and keep our place of business that we've had for a decade. We are reopening later this week still with no water, so we the owners will have to haul all water to flush toilets and wash hands. We are also reopening with a skeleton staff, as half of our staff has fled town. So it will still be challenging financially, as well as physically.

If you wish to donate to a specific massage therapist, please put their name in the notes of your donation. If you are donating to us as a whole, we will be splitting the funds amongst our staff according to what they lost in these last 3 weeks, as well as a portion to pay the rent.

Thank you so much for your help.
