We’re kicking off a brand-new season of The Asheville Rise: Community in Action!
This season, we’re shining a spotlight on the incredible nonprofits across Western North Carolina that are making a difference, strengthening our communities and helping our region thrive.
And we’re starting with a wonderful one: Friends of the Smokies!
From protecting the beauty and history of the Great Smoky Mountains to supporting the people and programs that help keep our national park thriving, Friends of the Smokies plays an important role in preserving this special place we all love.
In this season of The Asheville Rise, we’ll hear the stories behind local nonprofits, learn more about the work they’re doing and, most importantly, explore how our community can get involved through giving, volunteering and supporting their missions.
We can’t wait to introduce you to the organizations making an impact across Western North Carolina.
The Asheville Rise: Community in Action starts now!
The Asheville Rise - Stronger Together is a podcast from the Asheville Area Chamber of Commerce, celebrating the people and places that make our community thrive. Together, we rise - stronger, bolder, and more connected than ever.
