The situation is dire. Sadly, more than 230 lives have been lost. Hundreds of people remain missing. Over 283,000 are still without power, and the water systems in some counties are completely non-functional. And one week after Helene made landfall, communities remain cut off from critical health and support services. [Families reeling in North Carolina urgently need more support. Please send an emergency gift today to help us rush lifesaving aid at this critical time and to continue our mission supporting people and families in need around the world.]( Our response team on the ground in North Carolina is working nonstop in coordination with local shelters and clinics, distributing hygiene supplies, water, and medicines, and connecting people with medical services. And as Florida residents brace themselves for Hurricane Milton as it reaches landfall with sustained winds of 155 mph, Project HOPE is deploying with our partners at SAMU First Response, ready to respond in support of affected families and children. [Help bring urgent relief to survivors of Hurricane Helene’s destruction and continue to fulfill our mission with an emergency gift.]( [Rush My Gift]( Our team on the ground in North Carolina reports dire, growing need and anticipates a health care crisis.
