Register Directory Locations
Are you a business owner at somewhere that can offer something for free to the at-risk public? Are you someone who knows some helpful spots around your area? Register them one at a time on the Directory Form.
We are starting our Directory and Interactive Map in Western North Carolina, but will expand to more localities as directory locations are registered.
If your place of business is registered wrongly, please contact us and we will promptly take it off. We are not liable for outcomes and are simply a helpful directory service.
Thank you for helping us connect those in need with essential resources!
This information will be verified by Heartwarmers volunteers before being added to the interactive map. Inclusion on the map is not guaranteed and is subject to verification and approval by Heartwarmers.
Volunteer Role Needed: Phone Banking Businesses
Both community members and business owners can add a location to our directory. Before listing, we will call that location and confirm permission to list on our interactive map.
We need volunteers to help with this verification process. If you're interested in helping, please contact us.
More volunteer opportunities coming soon!
