Emergency Response
Hurricane Helene Relief and Recovery
Since October 4, more than 525 grants totaling $39.6 million have been awarded to support relief and recovery. While grant requests are no longer accepted, we continue to accept donations and deploy funds for continuing recovery.
Charitable organizations supporting long-term recovery in WNC communities affected by Hurricane Helene can apply for grants from the North Carolina Community Foundation Disaster Relief Fund beginning October 17. Approximately $5 million is available from the fund to support long-term recovery, address unmet needs and build community resilience and preparedness. Awards are expected to range from $25,000 to $100,000.
