Hello everyone, for those of you that don't know me, my name is Carlos Matias, a local business owner in the town of Fairhaven. I am trying to raise some money to buy much-needed basic supplies, and for us to be able to head down to Asheville, North Carolina, and offer some assistance to the people who have been severely affected by this terrible tragedy.

I've been fortunate to have done this once before back in 2017 with my friend Jose Rego after Hurricane Harvey had destroyed parts of Houston. After all of your help, we were able to raise over $11,000.00 in 5 days, and all of the proceeds went to help all of the people we could help.

All of your donations will go towards helping us buy basic household items these people so desperately need.

We will be leaving Sunday afternoon, Oct. 6th, to help as many people as we can through your generosity. Thank you and God bless.
