Charlotte Custom Stone

URGENT!!!

As you all know, the Western NC area has been decimated by the hurricane, and Federal relief efforts are slow to assist.
There are SO many people who now have nothing, and some are completely cut off from assistance.
Charlotte Custom Stone has partnered with Racing for ALS (a Non-profit who normally raises money for ALS research and provides patient assistance) to collect much needed supplies and caravan them up to various communities.
FEMA assistance has been slow, and is mostly providing to larger areas, like Asheville. We are focusing on the smaller communities.

We will be closed on Oct 17th and 18th, but our crews will still be installing.
Thursday, Oct 17th we will be set up at the Lowe's Home Improvement on Hwy 74 in Indian Trail, NC for collecting supplies (list in comments).
Friday, Oct 18th, we will be transporting those supplies in truck and trailers up to the Lake Lure and Chimney Rock areas.
We have a contact with the Town of Lake Lure.
We have a local who has been making regular runs up there, and knows the open roads, so they will lead our caravan.
We have applied for a permit to get into that area.
And, we will be escorted by local police/military personnel, as some roads are NOT safe.
Our plan is to get in, unload, and get out.
We will NOT be a strain on local resources, and will not cause a disruption to their efforts.
If we are asked to assist in any other capacity, it will be evaluated on the fly.

What we are asking from you is collection assistance.
We do not need help loading, but won't turn it away either. We will be there all day, starting at 8am.

Supplies are what we need.
CURRENT SUPPLIES listed in comments.
This will be a fluid list, and some things will change before the 17th.

Bring stuff over, or shop at Lowe's onsite, and give them to us there.
Monetary donations can also be done thru this link, and funds will be used to buy supplies:
