Hurricane Helene Relief Efforts
Hurricane Helene has caused unprecedented flooding and devastation, crippling the western part of North Carolina, including many communities home to UNC System institutions.

Scan the QR code to learn more about the relief efforts by East Carolina University.

With the recent natural disaster hitting western North Carolina and leaving many stranded without food, water, or shelter, many efforts are being made to send help and supplies to those who need it. We will keep an updated list of local and state-wide resources for those who can contribute.

If you know of a drop-off location near Greenville or local organizations accepting donations to send to Hurricane Helene victims, please reach out to Kim Fox at foxki23@ecu.edu to get the information added to the list.

Because of the efforts and donations so far, Greenville PD was able to send a team of 10 officers to Hendersonville, NC with supplies. They are currently still collecting supplies to send with a second team later this week!
