Support Melissa's Family As They Recover From Helene

Hi friends . My name is Amanda Alek and I am asking for your help in lifting my friend Melissa and her family up as their entire world has crumbled due to the devastation Hurricane Helene caused in the town of Asheville and surrounding suburbs. As a friend who lives far away this is how we can help. Melissa’s job as a wedding/family photographer will be put on hold for the foreseeable future as her town rebuilds and cleans up for months to come. I know I have seen so many lives changed from this platform and hope we can get a sliver of happiness over to her from this place. Funds will go to help them clean up, pay for groceries, and more necessities that we tend to take for granted in life. Please if you can’t donate at this time send prayers for Melissa, Jade and Graham. Thank you.

Melissa did want me to update to let everyone know luckily her home wasn’t destroyed. She’s not sure when they will be able to go back to it however. No water, no electricity is expected for weeks if not longer. But she is incredibly grateful to know it wasn’t a complete loss.
