From the website:

9/29/2024: Baptists on Mission is responding in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene in the mountains of western North Carolina. We’ve set up feeding units at First Baptist Boone and Biltmore Baptist in Arden. In addition, we’re setting up recovery sites in Boone, Spruce Pine, Hendersonville and Marion. Heavy rains from the storm caused massive flooding that washed out roads, destroyed homes and businesses, and knocked out power and phone service in much of the region.

Volunteers are needed in all areas, which include: feeding; shower and laundry; chain saw teams; tarping roofs; mudding and tearing out homes; and more. You don’t need to be trained to serve with some of these opportunities.

You can sign up to volunteer as well as give financially to support the relief efforts by clicking the buttons on this page. All financial gifts go directly to assist those impacted by the storm.

Thank you for helping us offer hope to families affected by this massive storm. Please continue to pray for everyone impacted by Hurricane Helene, including first responders and our volunteers.

9/26/24: Hurricane Helene is expected to come ashore in the Tallahassee, Florida area as a category 3 or 4 on Thursday, September 26. North Carolina is already experiencing heavy rain in the mountains and will experience tropical storm force winds in the next few hours. North Carolina Disaster Response volunteers are putting teams together to serve in our NC mountains as soon as conditions allow. If you are interested in serving in flood recovery, chainsaw and temporary roof repair, please complete the volunteer now tab to the right. If you are interested in serving in other Disaster Response ministries, please communicate your availability to your ministry leader. We are going to need DR trained and untrained individuals to serve as we are anticipating major flooding.
