When Hurricane Michael roared across the Florida Panhandle and into Georgia, the homes and livelihoods of thousands were wiped away. No one will forget the images of the destruction in Mexico Beach; our hearts broke with every news report.
It’s hard to comprehend losing everything overnight. Many lives will never be the same.
Hurricane Florence caused similar damage throughout the Carolinas as it dragged slowly across the Southeastern US with record rainfall.
Thanks to you, more than 30,000 Disaster Health Kits were distributed to devastated residents following these storms. Critical health supplies were also provided in MAP/Johnson & Johnson (J&J) Medical Mission Packs which contained over-the-counter medicines including much-needed bandages, analgesics, gauze, multivitamins, and other health supplies designed to prevent the spread of illness. Together, these hurricanes rank as two of the most catastrophic storms in U.S. history.
We are closing this project. Thank you again for your generous support of those in need following Hurricane Michael.
