For those that have asked about options for donations to our community. Here’s one great .

Since Monday, 83 grants totaling $1,961,246 has been distributed to nonprofits from the Emergency and Disaster Response Fund. The grants support frontline nonprofits meeting immediate needs or those whose ability to provide services was directly affected by the floods.

“In times like these, nonprofits join other first responders in helping their communities recover, and we want to make sure that those on the frontlines have the resources they need,” said President Elizabeth Brazas. “We are heartened by the level of support for this effort and are deeply grateful for every contribution and expression of concern. CFWNC and its partnering funders are committed to geographic equity and recognize that there are still isolated communities with fragile connectivity. We are here for the long haul as Western North Carolina continues to recover.”

Another great option to help.

Hurricane Helene has devastated our community—many businesses in Asheville and Buncombe County have been left in ruins, with some wiped off the map entirely. As we begin the long road to recovery, your support is more important than ever.

If you’d like to help our local businesses rebuild, please consider making a donation to the Asheville Area Chamber of Commerce Community Betterment Foundation, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. All donations are tax-deductible, and you will receive an email confirming the value of your donation.

Donate here: https://web.ashevillechamber.org/atlas/forms/donation/12 or go to ashevillechamber.org/mtnstrong to find resources and a link to donate.

Thank you for standing with us during this challenging time. Together, we will rebuild and restore what has been lost.

2022 was a rough ride in the stock market, but for the first time in over 30 years, it was also a rough ride in the bond market. Bonds for the last 30 years have provided good income with relatively low risk to a portfolio, they acted to stabilize balanced portfolios against the potential volatility of the stock market, with rising inflation and interest rates, this brought the turbulent waters into the previous safe harbor that was bonds. So, what does this all mean? What exactly happened last year, what does it mean going forward and what does it mean for the savers. Join us as we welcome Sheila King, CFA, Vice President and Co-Portfolio Manager at Eagle Asset Management as we discuss everything bonds last year, and what may be on the horizon for savers.

For many of us in the United States, we are just a diagnosis away from financial insecurity. Having access to health care can help to ensure better health outcomes for many including early detection and preventative measures. But what happens when there are barriers to good healthcare? What are the financial impacts of a lack of access to health care? Unfortunately, women disproportionately are affected. Join us as we discuss the economic impacts of a lack of care, particularly on women. We are joined by Alison Kiser Senior Director of External

Affairs for Planned Parenthood South Atlantic to discuss the shortfalls, the financial impacts, and what you can do to increase access to health care for women.
