About Our Team
The seven of us grew up together in Western North Carolina. Most of us have known each other since our earliest school days. Now in our 30’s, we’ve remained close - through college, weddings, babies and more. In the wake of Hurricane Helene, we immediately turned to a years-long text thread for information and support, checking in on each other and our families. An overwhelming need to help our tiny hometown banded us together and highlighted a need for each of our skills, the culmination of which became Mountain Strong. We are so thankful to be able to contribute relief and support to Yancey and Mitchell County. We couldn’t do it without your support and thank you for helping rebuild these communities that raised us, and that we love so much.
Keep Going.
