Venture Asheville recently hosted a telethon at the iconic Orange Peel, aiming to raise a staggering $1 million to support local businesses and entrepreneurs in the area. This initiative comes in response to the ongoing challenges faced by the community, particularly in light of recent economic hardships exacerbated by the global pandemic.
The event featured a lineup of local artists and entrepreneurs, who shared their stories and the impact of community support on their businesses. Attendees were encouraged to contribute through donations while enjoying live performances, fostering a sense of unity and resilience among participants.
Venture Asheville's efforts highlight the importance of local businesses as the backbone of the community, providing jobs and services that enrich the region's culture and economy. The telethon not only aims to raise funds but also to raise awareness about the struggles faced by local entrepreneurs. As the telethon continues, the hope is that the Asheville community will rally together to support its own and ensure a brighter future for local enterprises.
