Help Denise and Kendra Rebuild Local Businesses of WNC

A Look at Rebuilding Asheville:

Support 90+ Local Businesses of WNC

On September 27, Asheville and Western North Carolina faced a devastating impact from Hurricane Helene, claiming lives, damaging buildings and infrastructure, and disrupting countless livelihoods. The aftermath has left our region, and local businesses, including ourselves, in an economic decline. Our community is in urgent need of support to recover and rebuild.

Owners, Denise and Kendra have been proud to produce A Look at Asheville since 2012. Our commitment to support local businesses is our main goal and need your help to continue showcasing the WNC community in the next edition.

With your generous donations, we aim to give away Disaster Discounts to 90+ local businesses, ensuring they can market themselves, rebuild, and provide for their employees. With your support in reaching our goal, we will be able to offer 100% discounts to these businesses and play a part in reviving tourism in Asheville, helping our region’s economic recovery.

A Look at Asheville is a locally owned coffee table publication that has been showcasing local businesses for 22 years. Our publication partners with 80+ area hotels, B&B, and vacation rentals and is directly placed in the units as a guide for guests to learn about the area and all that it has to offer. Our publication's distribution and reputation is vital to local businesses, helping them market to the tourism audience which helps grow their brand awareness and sales for the local business economy. A Look at Asheville solely relies on our local businesses to participate in our production of each issue — majority of which have had devastating damage and will need to turn their focus to rebuilding.

Donations of a $100 or more will receive a complimentary copy of the 2025-2026 A Look at Asheville after its launch in August 2025.

Join us in showcasing the strength and spirit of our community. Together, we can highlight the stories of resilience and determination that define Asheville. We can’t wait to see you here soon.

Thank you for your support!

Denise and Kendra
