Support for the Rebuild of Lake Lure.

It's with sadness I write this. Over the last few days, North Carolina fell victim to extreme flooding. I grew up and learned everything in this beautiful valley that has been wiped out. With over 22" of rain in 72 hours, the town of Chimney Rock, as well as Lake Lure and many other towns, were leveled to just rubble. Luckily, all my family is okay, but the town is going to need years, maybe even decades, of rebuilding.

I'm asking for financial help in getting my boots on the ground in North Carolina. With a mortgage and business expenses, I don't have the freedom to be back helping for more than a week or two, but I feel called to be there as long as possible. I'm hoping, with help from you all, I can round up the finances to be in North Carolina helping the city with repairs for at least a month. I come from a background of construction, wiring electrical, and excavating, and I feel I can contribute so much to helping this valley recover from this tragedy.

Money donated will contribute to my travel expenses and food while I am helping in North Carolina, as well as fuel and offsetting my living costs while I help this place come out of the rubble. I hate to have to ask for help during this time, but it's the only way I can be there helping out. I thank you all for any donations you can make.

*Any extra or unused donations will be donated to Lake Lure Fire Department and allocated where deemed necessary.
