Water Mission Responding to Hurricane Helene Devastation

Disaster response team rushing to Western North Carolina after historic flooding

Late Thursday night, September 26th, Hurricane Helene unleashed its devastating Category 4 fury upon Florida. The hurricane’s relentless path of destruction then tore through Georgia, Tennessee, and the Carolinas, setting a record for the worst flooding in North Carolina's recorded history.
