Foundation for lake lure & chimney rock area businesses

Our small businesses in the Lake Lure, Chimney Rock, Bat Cave, Bill’s Creek, Rumbling Bald, and Gerton areas have suffered extensive damage or loss not only physically to their buildings, but also the damage of loss of tourism and visitors to our gorgeous areas of North Carolina. For some of the communities, they are completely cut off from their adjoining communities. FEMA only offers very little help to businesses in these catastrophic situations. There’s assistance for residents and home owners, but the small businesses, the foundation of our communities, are not getting the Federal assistance needed to help either completely rebuild or to maintain their business(s). The options for SBA loans are available but this also poses the burden a loan (or another loan) for a business that has already lost so much revenue, employees, and even land to rebuild on. Our Foundation for Lake Lure and Chimney Rock Area Businesses has been established to directly assist current business owners. Consider this Foundation as “adopting a town” to help 

RISE, REBUILD, and REVIVE.
