Help Our Communities Rebuild
The level of destruction we've witnessed is truly beyond words. Thankfully, our team is safe, and we are actively working to support our communities, including Asheville, Brevard, Hot Springs, and our hometown, Marshall.
The WNC region has come together in incredible ways to assist those in immediate need, and these efforts are ongoing. In the long term, sustainable support will be vital for our family, friends, and neighbors. Below, we’ve included a few ways you can help if you're able.
We sincerely want to thank all who are volunteering, particularly our Madison County EMS, Police, and Fire Services. Please consider a collective thank you to all who are helping!
We ask that you keep our region in your thoughts, and we sincerely thank you for being part of our extended community. Below are some of the many ways to help.
Donations and Resources
*Help FBA STAFF longer term. Many of you have asked how you can help. While immediate recovery efforts have focused on rebuilding infrastructure, we are now shifting our attention to the long-term well-being of our team—the people who are the heart and soul of French Broad Adventures. We are asking for donations that will go directly to supporting our staff. Every contribution will be distributed to help them through the difficult months ahead.
