Thank you to all the community members who supported the Outer Banks Chamber’s Gift Cards for Western North Carolina campaign.
Through the generosity of those who participated, the Outer Banks Chamber sent over $8,000 in gift cards to Western North Carolina this week. The gift cards will be given to the Blowing Rock Chamber of Commerce who will, in turn, give them to an organization that is responsible for delivering these to the families most in need in Avery and Mitchell Counties; these are two of the hardest hit counties in the state.
“We continue to keep those affected by Hurricane Helene in our thoughts; with the holidays upon us, we hope these gift cards help enable families to enjoy the holiday season,” stated Karen Brown, President & CEO of the Outer Banks Chamber. “We are happy to play a small part in their recovery.
Thank you all again for your generosity!
