Storm Recovery Efforts
Our Concord Baptist efforts will be with church and associational partners in western North Carolina. Thank you for joining the efforts!
Please help in one or more of the areas below.
Ways to help
There are several different ways to help provide storm recovery to the people affected by Hurricane Helene. Whether you are praying, giving, or going, you will have an impact on sharing the Light of the World to a community that is grieving, struggling, and beginning to recover. The road to recovery is not short and quick, but it is a long marathon. Concord's goal is to support this recovery effort through it's entirety, with opportunities to serve over the next several months.
Thank you Concord family! You provided resources which have been delivered to aid those who suffered loss in western NC from Hurricane Helene.
13 total portable propane heaters and tanks were purchased and delivered because of you!
Thank you for being willing to support the physcial needs for the community of Western North Carolina! The organizations and associations of churches that we are partnering with have stated that the distribution centers have ample supplies at this time. We will STOP our collection of supplies at this time, and we will let you know when there are needs in the future for which we can assist. Thank you for the supplies that you have given!
