The areas impacted by this flooding, are generally not well to do. Therefore, loss od property as well as the places work is going to impact them for years.
Samaritan’s Purse Starts Five-Site Response to Hurricane Helene
The storm left a path of devastation across the Southeast, from the coast of Florida to the mountains of North Carolina.www.samaritanspurse.org
We gave because it truly is a disaster. Samaritans Purse is based in Boone. They are offering a local response to both areas.
Not a guilt trip. Give what you can, if you feel compelled. Just know, what is being reported is true, and probably worse.
There are towns in NC that no longer exist:
We gave to Samaritan's Purse, based in Boone. However, will absolutely be giving to local Churches & folks in facebook who are driving to these locations.For those compelled and able to donate to relief efforts, read these, then give. I’m still looking for a good option to help east tn and west nc directly since they are not prepared for this like those in Florida should be.

Has to do with if any of my donation goes to overhead as opposed to victims directly. I am Jewish so I’d rather that money, however small, go to a religious agnostic organization.Not sure why not churches?
