Help Pars Fortuna Rebuild After Storm Devastation

Hey my loved ones and community members. As I am sure many know, Hurricane Helene has destroyed our business and so many others in Marshall, NC. Baylen Levore, Tori Bailey and myself, Rebecca Beyer are now without all our supplies, my entire library which I use to write my books, and so many other things. Our studio was filled with water and toxic sludge is completely unsalvageable. We attempted to enter it today and were horrified at the true extent of the damage. We are unable to enter our studio as the couch and furniture had been bashed against the door, blocking it. Our town is essentially, gone.

The damage is beyond imaginable for me. Even as I look at it, I feel the numbness of loosing our entire livelihood, original paintings of Baylen's, my journal I have kept since I was 19 and photos of loved ones that are irreplaceable. All of WNC is suffering now and if you can help us we will forever be in gratitude. We need a new studio and all new equipment from gloves to inks as well as furniture and rent at a new space. We also need to pay our bills until we are able to do so. Thank you so deeply.
