#WNCSTRONG SURVIVORS
Pick a family or individual to donate to
Currently, we are trying to help those that we know and/or a friend of a friend in need to avoid scammers. I created this page to share Venmo/Cash App, as well as their go fund me accounts. Many of us know people from out of town that want to donate. There are also people we don't know that want to donate to someone in need. This provides a safe page with info. from known locals that are in need of financial help due to loss of work, homes, businesses, and unfortunately family. Please continue to help if and when you can, even if it's just passing along the info. It is all greatly appreciated.

It doesn't matter how much you donate. You don't have to donate to all, but here is a way to help those in need. These are locals asking for help only if you can. You are not required to donate. You will only be added to this page when we confirm you are from the area. We are updating this page daily with new people and information.
