As we continue to navigate the aftermath of Helene, it’s heartening to see more signs of normalcy each day—power and cell service are returning, gas lines are shortening, and our community is coming together in remarkable ways. The outpouring of support through your emails and texts—offering help, donations, and even places to stay—has truly been inspiring.
Below, you’ll find important information from FEMA and the Small Business Administration. These resources can assist you and your employees during this recovery phase.
We’re fortunate to have such a generous community. If you have items to donate, several organizations, along with our county and city offices, are ready to accept your contributions. Additionally, if you’d like to volunteer your time, please fill out the county’s volunteer form.
We are committed to keeping you informed as we receive updates from various organizations and businesses. In the meantime, let’s continue to support one another—help your neighbors when you can, practice patience with everyone you encounter, and remember that we’re all in this together.
Thank you for your strength and compassion.
