Many of us want to help with the devastating effects of Hurricane Helene but just aren't sure how. Luckily, the Jaycees provides a network to do just that - below you can find information from the North Carolina Jaycees who are partnering with other states in the region to address very real needs to recover from Helene. Every but of support and assistance matters, and they've given many options on how you can help below. Please consider donating to help our friend in North Carolina.
