HELP My Tenants Recover from Hurricane Helene

Hi, I’m Christopher. My tenants lost their homes and most of their belongings due to historic flooding from Hurricane Helene. I am raising funds to help them recover and get back on their feet after this tragic event.

The funds raised through this campaign will go to these 5 amazing humans to help them recover from the devastation.

Before the flood, they had created beautiful homes including lush gardens where they were growing food, herbs and flowers. They were keeping bees and chickens, and miraculously a few of the chickens survived. They were the best tenants ever.

Ande-Rose is a non-traditional senior at Warren Wilson College who is studying psychology and expressive art therapy and will graduate in December. They have plans to attend grad school to eventually become a holistic psychologist focusing on trauma healing through embodiment and natural medicine. Ande-Rose is of a mixed racial, ethnic and cultural background and has done lots of various volunteer work in regard to embodiment, nature connection and natural healthcare, and they also tend to their 13 year old and emotional support animal.

Sydney is a current Warren Wilson student and farm crew member. She spends her time tending to the cattle and is one of the few students left over who are working to repair the Warren Wilson farm after the devastating effects of the hurricane. Sydney enjoys being and working outside, crafting, cooking and spending time in community.

Audrey is a 2023 graduate of Warren Wilson College and works at Red Scout Farm in Black Mountain. She has lovingly tended the land at her home and has been growing vegetables and herbs. She has also been caring for chickens and bees, whom she grieves the loss of. She especially loves cooking and sharing elaborate meals with food from her garden.

Will is an avant-garde musician, cook, multimedia artist and gardener. He says that living on the land has been a true blessing where he was able to deepen his understanding and connection with plants, himself, and all of his artistic output. He just started working at Verner Center for Early Learning in East Asheville.
