Friend,
Hurricane Helene has left a path of destruction through the southeast, bringing heavy winds and dangerous flooding to parts of Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas, Tennessee, Kentucky and Virginia. The loss of life, housing, infrastructure, ecosystems, property, businesses and so much more as a result of Hurricane Helene is horrific.
If you or someone you know has been impacted by Hurricane Helene and need access to critical resources like shelter, food/water, or communication tools, we encourage you to visit or share Asheville/West NC Resources, East TN Helene Resources Database, or find more resources organized by region on Hurricane Helene Relief for Southern and Central Appalachia.
Many communities hit hardest by the storm were not properly resourced for the historic Category 4 hurricane and will need time, money and resources to begin the long recovery process. To support these efforts from afar, please consider making a donation to one or more of the following listed below:
- (NC) Asheville Poverty Initiative
- (NC) Beloved Asheville
- (NC) Green Toe Ground Farm
- (NC) Earthhaven Ecovillage
- (FL) The Miami Foundation
- (KY) Kentucky Baptist Convention
- (TN) East TN Neighbor to Neighbor Disaster Relief Fund
- (VA) United Way of SW VA
To make donations via Venmo, Cashapp or PayPal to any of the states impacted by Hurricane Helene, visit the Its Going Down mutual aid page.
Our thoughts are with all the families affected and we are taking whatever actions we can to support. Deep gratitude to everyone who is able to contribute to relief efforts.
Thank you for your support,
— Green New Deal Network
