Urgent Relief Needed for The Market Place Staff

Dear Friends, Family, and Community Near and Far,

My name is Kate, and I am the General Manager of the Market Place Restaurant. As many of you know, Hurricane Helene swept through our beloved city and the surrounding areas, causing catastrophic damage and turning every single one of our lives upside down. In the wake of the hurricane, our incredible staff are facing surmounting unprecedented challenges. The team at Market Place works tirelessly to bring joy and good food to our patrons, but right now, they need our help. Every one of them is facing unexpected financial hardships due to lost wages and the massive costs associated with recovery.

We’re launching this GoFundMe campaign to provide immediate assistance to our staff during this challenging time. Every dollar will go directly to the staff of The Market Place. Your contributions will go directly to helping them cover essential expenses such as rent, groceries, and bills while they work to rebuild their lives, homes, and figure out what the future holds for each of them. The loss we have all suffered as a community is unfathomable, but we will rebuild and come out stronger than ever. We are so grateful for our neighbors and our community who have come together to help, even when we have nothing.

Times are incredibly unprecedented and no one knows when we will be able to return to work, and will be able to make our next dollar. The staff urgently needs our help to be able to survive, to feed their families, to rebuild their lives and homes.

Every little bit helps, and your generosity will make a meaningful difference in their lives. Let’s come together as a community to support those who bring us together over delicious meals and unforgettable memories. They need us now, more than ever.

Thank you for your kindness and support. Please share this campaign with others who may want to help.
