Mad Cave Studios has announced its support for the Book Industry Charitable Foundation (BINC) with a $10,000 donation to support comic and bookstore retailers impacted by Hurricane Helene. This donation will help provide immediate relief to retailers facing unforeseen financial and medical hardships caused by the disaster, which has devastated large parts of the Southeast.
As Hurricane Helene tore through Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas, and beyond, countless bookstores and comic shops were left damaged, without power, or facing other critical challenges. Communities like St. Petersburg, Asheville, and Black Mountain have seen their beloved shops close due to water damage and power outages, while others are fighting to recover amid widespread devastation.
BINC Foundation has been instrumental in helping these businesses rebuild, providing vital financial, medical, and mental health assistance. Stores like Sassafras on Sutton in North Carolina, which faces an extended closure due to water damage and missing infrastructure, have turned to BINC for support. Others, like Copperfish Books in Florida, are using their community ties to spread hope, while Blinking Owl Books in Fort Myers remains closed due to flooding.
