western North Carolina12/18/2024 AshevilleIn late September of 2024, Hurricane Helene made landfall in Florida and moved across Georgia into the Appalachian mountain range. Helene deposited record-breaking amounts of rainfall across Western North Carolina. This historic rainfall caused major flooding, downed trees, and mudslides that wreaked havoc on infrastructure, homes, and waterways. Week of Compassion is working with Christmount Christian Assembly, the national conference center for the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), to receive volunteers for ongoing cleanup and emerging rebuild efforts. Teams will help restore the camp property as well as work in the surrounding community. Details are still in development. Comments are closed.
