Hello and thank you for your donation to our Hurricane Relief Fund for the victims of Hurricane Helene in Western North Carolina.

My wife and I actually live in upstate South Carolina, about 45 minutes south of the devastation in WNC.

Those of you who followed us on Instagram know we are avid hikers and adventurers in the Blue Ridge. We were married there, and that’s where I was baptized. So, to call it our second home is an understatement.

We have a small community in Fairview that needs assistance. Their entire neighborhood was completely flooded. Many of them have completely lost everything, and the few whose homes have survived the flooding and fallen trees have home repairs to attend to.

Our goal here is to raise money to buy materials to help people build and repair their homes.

Thousands of people in WNC have been impacted and displaced by this hurricane. Most of them have lost everything and are having to completely rebuild their lives.

Anything you would be willing to give will help.

Our family thanks you tremendously.

The Shoemakers
