Help Traction Supply Co and Sheaffer's Tire Shop Rebuild

The town of Old Fort, NC was devastated by Hurricane Helene. There are so many people and small businesses that lost everything. Very few people in this area have flood insurance being settled in the mountains.

Traction Supply Co. and Shaeffer's Tire Shop share a building in the middle of town. Eric Shaeffer is the owner of a multi-generation family business and Matt Ross started his first business less than a year ago. Their building, while still standing, has been completely flushed by several feet of flood waters. This structural building was home to two independently owned specialty businesses containing lots of proprietary tooling and equipment that was either damaged or ruined from the flood.

The funding raised through this campaign will go towards gutting and rebuilding the interior of the building including floors and wall replacement, insulation, heating and cooling units, specialty tooling replacement, and essential supplies to get these two businesses back on their feet, while helping Eric and Matt move forward with their head above water after losing their sole source of income. While the world keeps turning, everything stopped for this small town, and any help is appreciated.
