Hurricane Helene Relief Work: Voice of a Child partners with AMURTEL
Hitting landfall as a Category 4 hurricane in the Big Bend region of Florida, Helene left catastrophic destruction in its wake as it roared north. More than 230 people have been killed from Hurricane Helene, which unleashed devastation across Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia and Tennessee.
Voice of a Child has partnered with the international relief organization AMURTEL to provide essential relief for those affected by Hurricane Helene. AMURTEL has a team on the ground in Asheville and Marshall (North Carolina) involved in the relief efforts.
As communities grapple with the aftermath of this devastating storm, our mission is to provide vital support and resources to those affected. We believe in the power of collective action and compassion, working hand in hand with local organizations and volunteers to restore hope and rebuild lives.
SUMMARY OF THE WORK SO FAR
AMURTEL volunteers quickly stepped up to support the community in Asheville and Marshall areas by:
-
- Preparing and delivering daily hot meals to those who have lost their homes
- Packing and delivering essential supplies to the victims
- Digging out mud from homes and buildings that didn’t get washed away
Your assistance is invaluable in the ongoing effort to rebuild the community. 100% of your donation will go towards supporting the victims of Hurricane Helene.
