JOIN US AT THESE ONE-YEAR HELENE MILESTONE OPPORTUNITIES
The Helene Milestone Day of Service was created to honor that spirit—both the loss our region endured and the extraordinary acts of service that continue to support recovery today. This day is more than a commemoration; it is a call to action. It is an invitation to residents, families, and visitors alike to give back. On Tuesday, September 23, we’re partnering with RiverLink and Food Connection for a Day of Service and invite you to be part of this effort.
Join the Asheville Chamber, Explore Asheville, Highland Brewing, the City of Asheville, and Buncombe County for Heroes of Helene: Honoring Recovery & Resilience Together - a free, family-friendly event on Thursday, September 25th, from 4 to 7 PM at Highland Brewing’s Meadow. Together we’ll recognize the first responders, healthcare professionals, utility workers, and countless others who showed up when it mattered most. Enjoy live music, local food, and community connection in a beautiful outdoor setting.
