North Carolina is a state of generosity, and we help each other during tough times. Community foundations and many other organizations across North Carolina are collaborating to support western North Carolina after the devastation brought by Hurricane Helene. The needs of our communities feel daunting, but community foundations know the organizations on the ground that can best support western North Carolina and direct dollars to them. To support ongoing recovery needs, consider giving to the organizations below:

• American Red Cross North Carolina Region
• Baptists on Mission
• Community Foundation of Henderson County
• Community Foundation of Western North Carolina
• North Carolina Community Foundation
• Polk County Community Foundation
• Samaritan's Purse

Or donate to our Disaster Relief and Recovery Fund
