GivingTuesday with Homeward Bound
Dec 28 all-day

Giving Tuesday 2021 is only two weeks away. This year, every dollar you donate on Giving Tuesday will be matched up to $50,000.

Let me tell you about Zach.

When Zach was 23 he was involved in a horrific car crash. He sustained a traumatic brain injury, severed his spinal cord, and was paralyzed from the neck down. Along with tremendous pain came addiction to prescription pain-killers, depression and anxiety. Eventually Zach lost his job, his marriage, and soon after he was homeless.

$27 a day will provide housing and case management support for one person for a year. Your Giving Tuesday donation to Homeward Bound will help folks like Zach get into their own homes this holiday season.

Here’s how you can best prepare to help folks like Zach this year:

 

Mark your calendar. Giving Tuesday is two weeks from today, on November 30, 2021.

 

Give! Now through December 31, 2021, your gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $50,000 as part of our Creating Hope and Homes Matching Gift Challenge! 

 

Spread the word! Encourage friends, family, and colleagues to join you in Giving Tuesday 2021. Share on social media what our mission means to you, and tag us on Facebook [@homewardboundwnc] or Instagram [@homeward_bound_wnc] so we can share it!

Reconnecting with the Magic of Live Theatre
Dec 28 all-day
online with Asheville Community Theatre
“I was very fortunate to see Clue on opening night. It was the first show since the pandemic. I think a lot of people in the audience cried when she announced that. I know we did! So glad to heave theater back. So glad to have Asheville Community Theatre back!!!” – C. Somervill, review on Google

On October 15th, 2021, something magical happened at 35 East Walnut Street. For the first time since March 2020, the magic of live theatre returned to ACT, as once again audience members, technicians, and performers raised the curtain on a nearly sold-out show. Laughter and applause filled our theatre again, and we all feel brighter for it.

How was this possible? YOU! Your support of theatre for and by the community is what makes the arts come alive at ACT. 

How can you help keep the magic alive in 2022? You can make a gift to support the education programs that will welcome thousands of students next year! You can make a gift to support the development of new plays by local playwrights! You can make a gift to support community members expressing their creativity and creating live works of art that explore different world views!

All this with one gift! Thank you for keeping theatre alive in Asheville for the past year. If you can, please consider supporting YOUR community theatre this year.

Wine and Wolves! Donate to Full Moon Farm Wolf Sanctuary
Dec 28 all-day
online w/ Full Moon Farm

Full Moon Farm is an organization dedicated to the well being of the wolfdog (wolf hybrid). Situated on 17 beautiful mountain acres in Black Mountain, NC, we operate as a federally recognized 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization for abused and refused wolfdogs who find themselves in need of love, shelter, and care through no fault of their own.

Full Moon Farm provides a safe haven for animals that cannot be placed into homes for the rest of their lives.  Our rescued wolfdogs come from animal control agencies, closed breeding situations and occasionally, an owner in crisis.  We evaluate each animal upon intake and work with them at their level of comfort.

Some animals are “hands off” and we respect their choice, as well as that of the animals that crave human interaction.  Our goal is to enrich the lives of the residents, allowing them to reach their highest potential.  Your support by donation or sponsorship makes our task possible.

Though they may be abused or neglected, homeless because of death or divorce, they are all God’s Creatures and worthy of a lifetime of respect. We are here to serve them.

  • Nancy Brown

It’s Memorable, Fast, and Easy! Also, 15% of your purchase will directly be applied to Full Moon Farm, not only will mom be getting great wines, but you will also be supporting a great cause.

Use code GBFULLMOON19 at checkout to donate 15% to Full Moon Farm.

Support Montreat Stewarts
Jan 11 all-day
online
The Montreat Conference Center (MRA) is planning to build a 40 room hotel with meeting rooms and an underground parking garage on Assembly Drive in the center of Montreat, directly across from Robert Lake Park. We are strongly opposed.
Montreat Lodge Proposal Update
Last week, after 50+ hours of meeting over several months, expert testimony, and significant financial resources, the BoA has decided to approve the MRA’s permit application. The Special Use Permit granted to the MRA allows them to build a 40 room hotel with underground parking and meeting rooms on Assembly Drive. This is adjacent to public and privately owned property that will be significantly impacted by major development. Along with the Montreat Stewards, we are very disappointed with this decision. We believe that the proposed hotel would be detrimental to Montreat as shown by the evidence presented by the Hayner and Jones families and the demolition of invaluable historic resources is needless at best. As further legal action is considered, please consider making a donation to support the effort. Find more information at montreat-stewards.org.

Inclement weather brings CRITICAL need for Blood Donations
Jan 14 @ 9:00 am – 6:45 pm
Asheville Donor Center

Winter weather is expected to hit most of TBC’s service areas this weekend and into early next week. Not only will this impact operations for TBC, it will more importantly affect blood donor turnout, leaving the blood supply in a more unstable position. Community donors are urged to donate blood this weekend ahead of the storm to ensure hospital needs are uninterrupted. Appointments are encouraged but not mandatory. Additionally, blood drives are just as essential as blood donors. To host a blood drive, please call 864-751-5003.

One donation can save up to three lives. REMINDER: Donors who have received the COVID-19 vaccine (1st or 2nd shot) CAN donate blood. More information, including safety measures, can be found on the TBC COVID-19 webpage. TBC is strongly encouraging donors to make appointments to donate blood. Donors will receive a special gift as a thank you for saving lives
