Help Save Amethyst Realm: Phoenix Fundraiser

Hey there, my name is River La Joice and I am the owner of Amethyst Realm in downtown Asheville, NC! check us out on Instagram: @amethyst.realm.avl

It is with deep, deep heartache that I just recently came to find out that my personal iCloud account was hacked. Which unfortunately gave the hacker access to literally EVERY SINGLE ONE OF MY PASSWORDS.....to all my emails, to my square account for Amethyst Realm, my Cash App for Amethyst Realm & even access to my iPhone photos that had pictures of multiple of my ( and even my grandfathers) debit/credit cards on it & more.....which resulted in all my accounts/cards being drained completely even into the negatives. I have already reached out to my bank & spent hours on the phone with it all resulting in my bank telling me they cannot help me & with my type of account I have with them I am not protected nor is there a recovery protocol. I have reached out to Apple & Square, filed claims that are currently in process BUT we truly do not know how long that will take. With this being said, unfortunately, Amethyst Realm is now facing the very real possibility of having to be shut down. Rent for the building is due fully in 17 days. So, I am turning to you all, the community/wonderful humans, that I birthed/created this space for, for HELP! ....For help to keep this beautiful and magical community space going & alive! I refuse to give up on this place. I have put my entire heart, soul & honestly half of my sanity into this place & all for the love of community & people having a safe & sober place to PLAY in downtown Asheville! Amethyst Realm is only in its 1st year & is only just beginning to finally really take off....and I truly want to continue to watch it rise & bring safety, play & connection to this community for years to come!

In the next coming week or we will be having a fundraiser party at Amethyst Realm to raise as much money as we can (so stayed up to date on our Instagram/Facebook pages) to save Amethyst Realm.....fundraiser prizes will include prints from local artists, aerial silk classes, cacao, your own private event party with all of your closet friends at Amethyst Realm & more!
