Support The Hurricane Relief Fund

Hurricane Helene has brought devastation across multiple states, claiming the lives of at least 57 people and leaving over 3 million without power from Florida to Ohio. The storm made landfall in Florida's Big Bend region on Thursday night as a Category 4 hurricane, unleashing destructive winds and heavy rainfall. Even after weakening into a post-tropical cyclone, Helene continued to cause "catastrophic, historic" flooding in the southern Appalachian region late Friday, according to the National Hurricane Center.

As the storm moves northward, it is expected to linger over the Tennessee Valley throughout the weekend, with high wind warnings issued for parts of Tennessee and Ohio. Our thoughts and prayers are with all those affected by this tragedy.

If you would like to help, please consider making a donation through the Episcopal Relief and Development program to support those impacted by the storm.
