Help Rebuild Asheville and Support Old Europe

Donation protected
Hurricane Helene has just come through WNC, bringing devastation to Asheville and the surrounding region. We are working to continually supply our community and people in need with necessary items for living as most power, water, and modes of reaching people in the rural areas have been destroyed. Some have gotten power restored, but we are weeks away from water being brought back to the city.

Old Europe is a staple within the Downtown Asheville district, serving housemade European style desserts and pastries alongside locally roasted coffee for the last 30 years. We employ artists, teachers, mothers, and people from all walks of life. Our main goal, day in and day out is to make sure that everyone that comes through our doors leaves with a smile and an unforgettable experience.

Please consider donating today to help the Old Europe staff during this time as they are not able to work and are living with uncertainty regarding their financial income. We are also raising funds to continue to purchase supplies and donate them to anyone in need through our store front and by working to deliver them to these hard to reach mountain towns.

October is the busiest month of the year here in the Appalachian area as tourists from all over the country come to see the changing of the leaves throughout the Blue Ridge Mountains. None of that will be possible this year as many of those roads to travel and see the beauty of the mountains have been washed away in the floods. While tourists are here they frequent our thriving artists, our craft breweries, and lively restaurants. The money made in that time is saved to sustain individuals here through the slower months.

We are asking for your help to make sure that when Asheville is rebuilt, that there will be people here to welcome you. We want to have you come and see the majesty of what makes this area special, but we need your help to bring it back to life.
