At the Kate B. Reynolds Charitable Trust, our hearts are with Western NC residents and Southeastern communities as they deal with the devastating effects of Hurricane Helene. We are in touch with our grantee partners in the region to make sure they have the flexibility needed to respond to immediate needs and ensure aid is equitable and reaches the hardest hit areas.
We know there is an influx of support in the short term after a disaster and will work with local organizations to support long-term recovery. If you need information about NC relief efforts, we recommend you connect with the North Carolina Inclusive Disaster Recovery Network, which is a collaborative of organizations working to ensure community voice is centered in disaster recovery and access to resources is equitable.
If you would like to donate to the many communities in our state impacted by the storm, visit the Community Foundation of Western North Carolina Emergency and Disaster Response Fund or the North Carolina Community Foundation Disaster Relief Fund.
