The Carolina Brotherhood

The Carolina Brotherhood was founded in 2012, following the line of duty death of Asheville Firefighter Jeff Bowen. The group supports families grieving the loss of loved ones – whether it’s law enforcement, EMS, or firefighting. Not only do they stand with the family in the days following the tragedy, they help provide financial and emotional support in the years to come. #NeverForget

Each year members of the group embark on a 600-plus mile bike ride across both Carolinas, raising money to help families of the fallen. This year the goal is to raise $20K. Here’s where you can make an online donation.

Thank you!
