Arbol Eatery,
InterNations, Mitch Coles Real Estate Inc., and renowned Charlotte pitmaster Gus the Butcher are coming together for a powerful community initiative to raise donations and funds for those affected by the recent hurricane in Western North Carolina. This special event will be held at Arbol Eatery, located at 227 West Trade Street, Charlotte, on Saturday, October 5, 2024, from 9:00 AM to 11:00 PM.
The hurricane’s devastating impact on Asheville and surrounding areas has left many residents without homes, electricity, and access to food. While federal and local relief efforts are underway, immediate needs remain unmet. In response, Arbol Eatery and Gus the Butcher are spearheading a grassroots effort to provide support. Gus the Butcher will personally transport food donations to Asheville on Sunday, October 6, 2024, where he will offer free meals from his food truck to those in need.
“We have seen the devastating effects of the hurricane, and while larger organizations are doing their part, we know there’s an immediate need for people to step up and offer direct support,” said Mitch Coles, owner and co-founder of Arbol Eatery and real estate developer. “Food is a unifier, and at Arbol Eatery, we believe in using food as a way to bring communities together, especially in times of crisis.”
