We need your help!!
Rug & Home is calling on community members to join a special blanket drive to help those affected by Hurricane Helene. From November 11th to November 17th, Rug & Home locations across Asheville, NC; Gaffney, SC; Kannapolis, NC; Pineville, NC; and Raleigh, NC, will be collecting new blankets and sleeping bags. All items gathered will be distributed in partnership with Hearts with Hands in Swannanoa, along with other local organizations, to reach families and individuals in need as winter approaches.
As temperatures drop, these donations will provide immediate warmth and comfort to hurricane victims who are facing the daunting task of rebuilding their lives. This drive is part of Rug & Home’s ongoing mission to serve communities in times of need, offering a straightforward way for neighbors to support one another.
“This is a chance for us all to lend a hand to those going through an incredibly difficult time,” said Rakesh Agarwal, Owner of Rug & Home. “We invite everyone to drop by any of our stores with new blankets or sleeping bags to help bring warmth to those who need it most this season.”
