The outpouring of concern for Buncombe County and the entire region of Western North Carolina is overwhelming and we cannot express how grateful we are for everyone wanting to lend a hand or donate to relief efforts.

We have multiple ways to help the ongoing efforts to provide relief to our community members who have been most affected by the devastation of Hurricane Helene. Many people have reached out to Buncombe County and would like to provide financial-based assistance.

We have heard from two of our trusted local nonprofits that have the administrative capabilities to receive and distribute funding in a way that is most beneficial to our community. The money collected through these organizations will be used to help provide immediate necessities while helping the overall long-term effort to continue to provide the numerous essentials associated with ongoing relief efforts.
