ATTENTION CAROLINAS GCSA MEMBERS
In an effort to provide basic necessities to our members, their families, and their teams, the Carolinas GCSA is working to establish Pick Up and Drop Off points for supplies.
For people impacted in the areas of Hendersonville and Boone we have established two "Pick Up" locations where we are having water and canned goods (with pop tops) delivered.
We have volunteers ready to get these supplies from the drop off to pick up locations. We will be adding more locations for those in need as they become available. If you are in another location which can accept donations we can add drop off locations as well.
Members impacted personally: GCSAA has a disaster relief fund, and the Carolinas has received donations from a couple companies and local associations already and will be getting those funds to members, families, or crews who are suffering from any loss at their homes.
PICK UP LOCATIONS:
BOONE, NC — Southern Ag warehouse - 395 Brook Hollow Road, Boone, NC 28607
HENDERSONVILLE, NC — Southern Ag warehouse - 511 Maple Street, Hendersonville, NC 28792

WE WILL POST UPDATES ON SOCIAL MEDIA AS WE ARE ABLE TO SUPPLY THESE LOCATIONS.

Special Thanks to all who have reached out to begin this effort AND to all those who are going to help execute these relief efforts!!
