??? Supporting Our Southern Communities in the Aftermath of Hurricanes Helene and Milton??? The Southern U.S. is reeling from the devastation of two major hurricanes that have swept through, causing widespread destruction and impacting countless lives. Entire towns have been wiped out, and communities—many of which are already marginalized and vulnerable—are facing tremendous hardship. At Partnership for Southern Equity, we stand with our neighbors, prioritizing the resilience and recovery of frontline communities. We’re committed to ensuring that relief efforts reach those most affected and that these communities receive the support needed to rebuild equitably and sustainably. ?? If you need resources, shelter information, or emergency assistance, check these for: ?? Florida??Georgia ?? North Carolina ??South Carolina??Tennessee ?? How You Can Help: 1?? Donate to trusted local organizations actively supporting recovery efforts. 2??Volunteer if you’re in a safe position to do so. Your time and efforts are invaluable. 3?? Spread the Word by sharing this post to connect those in need with the resources that can help. Together, we can ensure that our response centers justice, equity, and long-term resilience. Let’s build back stronger and more equitably, one community at a time. ?? #ClimateResilience #HurricaneRecovery #JustEnergy #CommunityPower #ClimateJustice #EnergyEquity #RebuildTheSouth
