World Vision - Urgent: Hurricane Helene wreaks staggering devastation

HURRICANE HELENE RESPONSE
Send urgent relief now
Give Now


Communities across the Southeast are reeling in the wake of Hurricane Helene — the second-deadliest hurricane in the U.S. this century, and one of the most destructive. Up to 29 inches of rainfall caused massive flooding that has wiped out infrastructure including key water and power grids. Many have lost homes, possessions, or their entire community.
Your gift to World Vision’s Disaster Relief Fund will help. Please give to support survivors of this and other U.S. disasters with urgently needed aid like diapers and formula, cold packs, soap and hygiene kits, underwear and socks, bedding, and much more.

How we’re responding
With rapid deployment from our network of product warehouses, we reached thousands of people in Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina last weekend with supplies including water, generators, and more, with additional aid to come. This weekend a team will begin supporting the hard-hit community in and around Asheville, NC.
“World Vision’s call was an answer to prayers.” Pastor Gwen of St. John Baptist Church, Arden, NC, whose community is receiving support through World Vision
Partners in hope
World Vision is thankful to partner with local churches to serve families in crisis. For this response, we are partnering with Asheville Church of the Nazarene, Anchor Ridge (serving Appalachia), and many more across four states.
You, Lord, hear the desire of the afflicted;
you encourage them, and you listen to their cry.

—Psalm 10:17 (NIV)
