Hurricane Helene response through UMCOR
Hurricane Helene has devastated parts of the southeastern U.S., bringing catastrophic wind, rain, and flash flooding to many states and communities. In response, UMCOR is coordinating with affected annual conferences and supporting their local relief efforts. UMCOR has awarded solidarity grants to the North and South Georgia annual conferences with multiple grants in process for other annual conferences. Additionally, UMCOR-trained Early Response Teams (ERTs) are coordinating efforts to support the removal of debris, tarping of roofs, and cleaning out of homes in hard-hit areas. You can help by writing a check to EPUMC and put "Hurricane Helene" on the memo line. The Advance number is 901670. EPUMC will then forward the donations.
