The Dune Preserve - rebuild fund
Donation protected
The Dune Preserve, like every shoreline establishment affected by Irma, has been battered by the wrath of the biggest hurricane in the last decade. Situated between 5star resort, CuisinArt, and the Greg Norman 18 hole golf course and preserving 750 feet of sand dunes, the eco-sensitive beach bar, restaurant and concert venue, created by Bankie Banx, is home to music enthusiasts from far and wide. An artistically eclectic establishment that recycles old Anguillian racing boats, driftwood, musical instruments and whatever else Bankie's imagination conjures up!
Numerous fans, music lovers, Dune folk and the usual Dune tribe have been reaching out to offer financial support, in an effort to restore Bankie's Preserve, which has been severely damaged as a result of hurricane Irma.
As it stands, Bankie's property has been rendered structurally unsafe, with the majority of the windows and doors blown out and remains without a roof. As a result, Bankie and his children are now living with his sister, Dr. Oluwakemi Linda Banks. We're raising money as we're absolutely heartbroken for Banx. We desperately want to put him in a position where he can re-build as soon as possible. Let's do what we can to help our favourite King of the Dune ; )
We the organisers (Ada and Heather), work with Bankie at The Dune, running the bar day to day and/or dealing with annual events such as Moonsplash. Like you, we love Planet Dune and have spent many an hour drinking and enjoying the music, laughing with Banx at the bar. We cannot imagine the island without our magical beach bar, so let's bring the Dune Preserve back to life!
ALL funds will be withdrawn by us and forwarded directly to Bankie's on island bank account.
