Support for DSSOLVR Brewing Staff after Flooding in WNC

As you have likely seen, Asheville experienced catastrophic flooding as the result of a once in a 1,000 years rainstorm immediately followed by the remnants of Hurricane Helene. DSSOLVR has had to close its doors for several days already, and are looking ahead to an unknown timeline and expenditures to reopen due to this devastating event. This unexpected crisis means the incredible, dedicated, and hard working humans behind one of NC's most beloved breweries are facing uncertainty about their livelihoods.

About DSSOLVR:

DSSOLVR is known for many things. Outside of its exceptional craft beers, it is also known for being a community space that supports local efforts, artists, and nonprofits every single month at both locations. It is a brand that encourages being your true self and having fun while also working hard and doing dope things.

The Challenge:

The sudden closure has left their devoted staff without a source of income. These individuals, who have poured their passion and expertise into creating memorable experiences for their patrons, now find themselves facing financial strain during this difficult time.

How You Can Help:

We have established this Go Fund Me to support the dedicated Asheville team during the closure. Your contributions will go directly to providing financial relief for these staff members, helping them cover essential expenses such as rent, groceries, and other necessities.

Every donation, no matter the size, will make a significant impact on the lives of their staff members. Let's rally together as a community to support the incredible individuals who have made DSSOLVR the special place it is.

How Your Donations Will Be Used:

Salary Support: Ensure that their staff members receive financial assistance to cover their basic living expenses while the brewery is closed.

Essential Needs: Provide support for immediate needs such as rent, groceries, utilities, and other essential expenses.

Employee Well-being: Contribute to the well-being of their staff during this challenging time.

Conclusion:

"DSSOLVR is the most incredible place I've ever worked, and I've worked in a lot of industries and with a lot of different groups of people. Mike and Vince have created such an emotionally healthy working environment in the food and beverage industry while also making the most delicious beer with the most badass branding. The leadership of DSSOLVR always puts their people first and I want to continue that message today. I have never felt more supported as an employee as I have being a part of this team and all the bartenders at DSSOLVR Durham echo these sentiments. We want to return the support we have received from the team in Asheville and now help offer support to them. This is truly only the beginning of a rebuild not only for DSSOLVR but the entire Western NC community. The people behind DSSOLVR Asheville deserve to feel stability and security during this time and we are so grateful for anyone who reads this, shares this, donates even just $1 it truly makes such a difference. And remember - come have a beer at DSSOLVR Durham that is still open as that helps fund these efforts as well and fund what will be needed to reopen our original location. I appreciate you all." - Ansley, DSSOLVR Durham Taproom Manager

Thank you for considering a donation, and please share this campaign with your friends, family, and networks. Together, we can provide much-needed support for the DSSOLVR Asheville staff as they face this temporary closure.

The Team at DSSOLVR Durham
