Hurricanes Helene and Milton have caused extensive damage to Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and Virginia. You can impact the lives of those in need.

You can provide practical help to people who have lost everything after the hurricane. Along the way, you can encourage them and share God's love. Serve for a day or multiple days. No experience or training necessary.

We have partners serving in Florida and Georgia (trained and sefl-contianed units only right now). Tasks are varied and depends on location and dates available to serve. While we are deployed in numerous locations, those below are the current areas in need of additional volunteers.
