The Internet Access Lab at the Universal Advanced Manufacturing Center (Building 22, Room 107) is here to help. In the Lab there are over 20 computer stations, each are internet ready for you to work on a Creative Cloud project, watch a YouTube tutorial, complete your assignments, and submit those assignments through OpenLMS. The Lab is open to all students, full-time or part-time, who have either seated or virtual classes.

In the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, various resources are available to assist North Carolinians with recovery efforts.
FEMA provides financial assistance for immediate needs like housing repairs, rental assistance, and replacement of personal property, as well as support for serious needs such as food, medical supplies, and childcare expenses. Homeowners and renters can apply online or by phone. The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) offers low-interest loans to help businesses, non-profits, and homeowners recover from disaster-related damages. USDA services are available to support recovery for those in the agricultural sector.

To our membership, community partners, and McDowell County as a whole,
We are continuing to share as much information as possible with you all in regards to resources, road closures, etc. The Chamber office has power back, so our staff will return to a mostly normal schedule this week as we are able. Our phones are working again, so please reach out if you need us (828-652-4240). Our staff is working to reach out to all of our membership to check in, figure out critical needs, and make sure everyone is okay.
Below are links to helpful resources. Some of these have been condensed into one PDF or link, and some have been removed because they are out of date/no longer necessary.
