Relief for Charlie Hodge's Workers Post-Flood

On Thursday Sept 26th the storm hit and by Friday Asheville flooded, and took with it Charlie Hodge’s bar, The Getaway. Like, the whole bar is washed down The French Broad River, there is nothing left. Charlie employs dozens of people and is trying to make payroll. 5 people have lost their jobs entirely, and the staff at his restaurant, Sovereign Remedies, are without work. It could take weeks to months to get water and electricity back to Asheville, let alone any unemployment or disaster relief. We are trying to immediately get funds to these beloved workers.

Charlie is safe, but an understatement to say he’s overwhelmed. Please help relieve some of the immense burden he’s immediately facing by helping him take care of his loyal staff while we await next steps.

Thank you,

Chris Funk and Seann McKeel
