Looking for more ways to help rebuild WNC?

Local firm Altura Architects is inviting design professionals to join the Helene Design Pledge — a solution-oriented joint effort from architects, engineers, surveyors, and other experts.

The goal? To donate their time + know-how in order to help communities across WNC affected by Hurricane Helene plan a sustainable, resilient rebuild.

Altura Architects has already pledged 200 hours of design time to the cause, and every additional volunteer makes a huge difference.
