The relief needs are changing daily. The immediate needs at this time are: generators, heaters, basement dehumidifiers, Visa cards, cash, and prayers. We do not need anymore clothing or cleaning supplies donated for the time being.
That said, there are so many great ways to help our WNC neighbors in need. May I offer what I heard folks saying they needed to better serve hard hit areas like Mitchell and Yancey Counties? HEAT!!!
They have ample supplies of most other things but REALLY need these on Amazon (but certainly other places, too): heaters, generators and dehumidifiers for basements: Please consider this as a possible way to honor a family member or loved one for early birthday or Christmas present.
You can ask that it be shipped to: Helene Recovery Coalition, 2002 Riverside Drive, Asheville, NC 28804. This is the staging warehouse serving WNC counties. Thank you!
