Western NC Disaster Relief
Together We are NC Strong!
The devastation in Western North Carolina is truly heartbreaking and incompressible. Homes and farms have been destroyed, many people are missing, stranded without help or communication, and are running low or are out of resources.
When our neighbors are in pain and struggling, we must step up to support them! Here at M & M Tack Shop, we will be collecting donations to send to those who lost everything.
We will be accepting human and pet donations, new or in excellent condition, at our storefront in Raleigh, NC during our regular business hours. We however can not large bags of feed as we do not have room for storage.
If you are not in the Raleigh area, but would like to donate, we have listed below other donation drop off locations throughout the state as well as reputable charities accepting monetary donations. Please check back regularly as we will be continually adding to this list.
