As many of you know Asheville is recovering from mass devastation. SAW is responding to the great needs of the community by collecting chainsaws and gear and educating the community on safe and proper use. We are working directly with clients to clear roads that have been blocked by trees and helping to process the tens of thousands of dead and down trees.

YOU can help greatly just by clicking on the donate button. We can get through this together.
