Hurricane Helene Relief: North Carolina Disaster Response
- United States of America
About Program
On September 26, Hurricane Helene made a historic landfall, becoming the first Category 4 hurricane to hit Florida's Big Bend since record-keeping began in 1851. The storm struck near Perry, Florida, just southwest of Tallahassee, around 11 PM.
Hurricane Helene brought devastating impacts to North Carolina, particularly in the western and central regions. Torrential rain caused severe flash flooding, washing away entire neighborhoods and cutting off communities from essential services. Landslides blocked roadways, further isolating affected areas, while powerful winds knocked down trees and damaged infrastructure. Several regions are still struggling with limited access to power, clean water, and communication services. All Hands and Hearts has been working on the ground, helping clear debris, conduct muck and gut operations, and assess homes for damage. Volunteer on our Hurricane Helene Relief program today.
