It has been just over a month since Hurricane Helene hit WNC and we want to share a few updates with you. We are extremely grateful to say that we have reopened our doors for patient care! Several of our team members are still displaced and have not been able to return to work. Some who have returned are working at reduced hours. We are nearly halfway to our goal, we still need your help! Please share our Go Fund Me far and wide to help get the message out there. You will find that link in our bio.
Your donation will help our team recover and continue to persevere. Thank you for your care and attention.
Updates on Asheville’s status: Most of the area has running water now, but it is still unsafe for drinking. Our new normal looks quite different. We hear stories from our team about having longer commutes due to the recovery efforts and road closures, and having to boil pots of water to use with portable camp showers in order to bathe safely due to the contaminated water. There are so many stories from this experience; some are heartbreaking, some are beautiful, and all are important to be heard.
This geological event has reshaped our region and things will never be the same, but our hope is to build it back better together. ❤️ Thank you for all of your support!
It`s been roughly three weeks since Hurricane Helene ravaged our town and drastically altered our way of living. Three weeks with no running water. Three weeks of gathering and distributing supplies. Three weeks of uncertainty and grief. And most importantly, three weeks of some of the most beautiful community responses you could imagine. 💖💪
Your donations and support mean the world to us as we try to land gracefully on our feet and do our part to keep our team healthy and happy. We want to express our immense gratitude from the bottom of our hearts.

If we could make one last request from you: PLEASE SHARE OUR GOFUNDME WITH YOUR NETWORK!
We understand that many were affected by this storm, and our team was no exception. Weeks without pay, and no timeline on when the Asheville economy will return to any semblance of normalcy means that WNC residents will need your help for quite some time to come. We appreciate your support. Again, THANK YOU.

To our wonderful Envision Eyecare community,
It’s hard to imagine the scale of Hurricane Helene’s damage. If you are able, please donate to life-saving community efforts first. The level of destruction in Asheville and the surrounding western North Carolina region is unimaginable, everyday is a challenge balancing the reality of this upheaval.
We are humbly reaching out asking you to consider supporting our amazing team during this heart-breaking time. You’ll find a link to our gofundme in our bio.
This is the crew of people you see every day in our office, that help YOU see your best. We are committed to our purpose: to Optimize Quality of Life to Better Our World and our little corner of the globe needs this now more than ever.
The livelihoods of our team have been gravely disrupted. While our office has thankfully been spared, the city of Asheville is still experiencing major power outages and no certain timeline of when running water will be available. Many of our team members remain in town to provide information and resources for those in need, many have temporarily relocated to weather the storm from afar.
It’s difficult to ask for help, though due to the lack of water, we are only able to operate at a limited capacity, therefore compensation for our team has been drastically reduced.
Your Donation Will Help Our Team:
Secure upcoming payments for our teams personal bills, rent and mortgages.
Cover their living expenses and put food on the table.
Provide gas and resources to attend work as needed.
Continue personal health care and well-being services.
We are beyond grateful for your kindness and support. Thank you for anything you can give during this recovery time.
We’re Envisioning a Brighter Future For All...
Love, The Envision Eyecare Team
