Old Fort Strong Endurance Festival

So many people in WNC need our help in so many different ways.  When I saw the group that puts on all my favorite trail runs in the mountains had organized this endurance run as a fundraiser, I knew it was one way I could contribute.  I’ll be running 6 hours in the Old Fort Strong Endurance Festival.  Please donate if you can and feel inclined.  This group is legit.  They partnered with Camp Grier and began providing food, water, and supplies for the community as soon as they were able.  Help me in my effort to raise money for the Old Fort Strong Fund. This fund is dedicated to helping support community members in Old Fort who have lost their homes or had significant damage to their homes and will not receive any help to pay for rebuilding from insurance.  Due to the massive flooding that took place outside of historic flood zones, many homes did not have flood insurance to cover this cost.  In total 50+ homes were lost in McDowell County alone.  The goal is to raise $2,000,000 from this event alone to help in this cause.  All donations will go directly to helping those in need in our community.
