Les Key, founder of Meteor Guitar Gallery, has always been a pillar of the Bentonville community. His recent move to create The Meteor @ The Ravington brought his passion for music and gathering spaces to a new audience in Centerton. Yesterday, while preparing for an event at The Ravington, Les suffered a serious accident—he fell from a high ladder while hanging curtains and broke two vertebrae. Now, he faces a long road to recovery and will be unable to work for some time.

Les’s family is stepping up to keep the business running, with his sons helping cover his work at The Ravington. But the challenges don’t stop there. Les and his wife Alanna have recently welcomed an elderly aunt into their home, and Alanna is now caring for both Les and her aunt and their grandson. The medical bills and living expenses are quickly adding up, and the family could use extra support to help them through this difficult period.

We’re rallying together to help Les and Alanna cover their immediate needs while Les heals. Any contribution, big or small, will make a real difference. We’re also planning a meal train to support Alana as she cares for her family. Your generosity and kindness will help lighten their load and show them how much their community cares. Thank you for supporting Les and his family during this challenging time.
