Helping with Flood Disaster Relief

Many communities around Western North Carolina endured severe damage during the storms of Tue., Aug. 17. We have set up a WNC Disaster Relief Fund to collect money for whatever needs arise—helping families get water, supplies, and supporting the clean up process. 100% of money in this fund will go to relief organizations and churches on the ground in the hardest hit areas (a majority in Haywood Co). In the weeks ahead we'll work with churches and organizations to assist with cleaning supplies and volunteer work.
To give to WNC Disaster Relief, go to the church’s donation page HERE and select it from the list.

One immediate need: People in the Cruso community need storage totes to hold personal belongings--big enough to be useful but small enough to carry. (Maybe 15-30 gal sizes). The distribution place is Cruso United Methodist Church, but only emergency services are allowed in the area, so our drop-off location will be Hominy Baptist Church in Candler. You can donate storage bins here at FBC Weaverville and we'll take them, or give money to the Relief Fund
