Since Hurricane Helene made landfall in late September, AmeriCorps has been coordinating with the FEMA, federal partners, the American Red Cross, and others to begin recovery efforts and deploy members to impacted states, including Florida, Texas, Virginia, and South Carolina. More than 100 AmeriCorps members from AmeriCorps NCCC and FEMA Corps are on the ground in affected communities: ☑️ assisting with debris removal, mucking, and gutting. ☑️ providing disaster survivor assistance. ☑️ helping deploy FEMA staff to Florida and other affected areas. ☑️ sorting and distributing donations. ☑️ additional teams will deploy to North Carolina and Georgia to provide disaster survivor assistance. As we have done for the past 30 years, AmeriCorps will continue to provide recovery support to the hundreds of thousands affected by Hurricane Helene.

Exactly what my daughter did after Hurricane Sandy hit. Everyone in Americorps caravaned cross country from the west coast to work everything from senior care to gut and pump. 

Thank you for pitching in!!
