Good info here on how to help folks dealing with hurricane devastation.

Update: Convoy Of Hope is working on mobilizing more semi trucks of relief supplies to Carolinas. Below is a breakdown of how every donation at any level helps bring relief and hope. Not everyone is able to donate funds…that’s ok. Please keep them in your prayers. If we all join together as we are able, we can make a difference in the lives of many. $10 helps provide essential relief supplies to a family of four. $15 helps create a family hygiene kit. $33 helps provide essential relief supplies to a family of four for a day. $50 helps provide a relief bucket. $225 helps provide essential relief supplies to a family of four for a week. $30,000 helps send a semi truck to a disaster site. (One semi trailer carries an average of $90,000 worth of relief supplies to a disaster zone.) Donate here: https://lnkd.in/grNsJ2eW

#EFPRnonprofit: As we brace for what could be a busy season for tornadoes and hurricanes, disaster relief charities are on high alert. ??

Here’s an update from our President!

We’ve been getting a lot of questions on ways to help Western North Carolina recover from the devastation of Hurricane Helene. We encourage everyone to give to reputable organizations and donate to community supply drives sponsored by your local county governments or local charitable organizations. As many roads are still impassable in Western NC, do not collect supplies to drive to this area. Utilize established organizations that can help get these supplies to the people that need help. In times of disaster, there are many scams that try to use an individual’s strong desire to help to get them to donate to fraudulent charities. Be sure that the organization you choose to give to is one that is trusted. Here is a list of suggested charitable organizations that are working in Western NC: (1)?Baptists on Mission - https://lnkd.in/eUtJPTGc (2)?Red Cross - https://lnkd.in/eyVGtz-F (3)?NC Disaster Relief Fund - https://lnkd.in/ezU_Av2k #GottoBeNC #NCAgriculture #HurricaneHelene #DisasterRelief #WNC #WesternNorthCarolina #WesternNC #NCWX

Are you trying to figure out how to Help Western North Carolina or other areas hit by Hurricane Helene? I am too. I think donating locally is a better choice if you can find reputable sites to drop off supplies. A lot of work is being done by volunteers and corporations. When giving, suggest you be careful and vet those to make sure you are giving to an organization that will get families the help they need. If you know you can get through to Asheville or other areas and plan to take supplies to donate, here are few items to consider taking. All of those Lysol wipes/spray, hand sanitizer, and paper supplies you bought during COVID--that your family can spare.
