Hurricane Helene Relief Effort: Your Help is Urgently Needed!

As Hurricane Helene continues to impact Eastern Tennessee, Disaster Relief Haulers (DRH) is organizing a critical relief effort. We will be leaving early Saturday, October 19th to provide much-needed supplies and assistance to affected communities. We are urgently requesting donations and volunteers to help us bring aid to those in need.

What We’re Collecting:

We are focusing on items that will directly help in the cleanup and recovery process, especially for farms and ranches impacted by the storm. Here's what we need:

  • Building supplies: plywood, lumber, nails, etc.

  • Tools and Equipment: Chainsaws, work gloves, rakes, shovels, fence-building tools, fencing materials.

  • Animal Supplies: Hay, straw, livestock feed, poultry feed, cat food, dog food, cat litter.

  • Energy Supplies: Generators, extension cords.

  • Water and Cleaning Supplies: Cases of water, flood buckets (5-gallon buckets with cleaning supplies).

  • Monetary Donations: All monetary donations will go toward purchasing supplies or covering fuel costs for this trip.

Please Note: We are not accepting any clothing, furniture, or household supplies at this time.

Volunteer Opportunities:

We’re also seeking volunteers to assist with relief efforts on the ground in Tennessee. If you’re available to help, we have opportunities both at the fairgrounds and in the affected areas. No matter your skillset, we can use your help!

How Your Donations Make an Impact:

Your donations will go directly to helping the communities that have been devastated by Hurricane Helene. We're focusing on aiding farmers, ranchers, and animal rescue efforts by providing necessary supplies, from fencing materials to pet food. In times of disaster, every donation helps, whether it’s a small item or financial support.

Why This Matters:

The impact of Hurricane Helene has been severe, and the recovery process will take time and resources. By coming together, we can help these communities rebuild and offer relief to the families and businesses affected. While we may not be equipped to assist with catastrophic disasters on the largest scale, we believe in doing everything we can for those impacted.

How You Can Help:

  • Donate: You can drop off items at one of the locations listed above or make a monetary donation through our secure PayPal account.

  • Volunteer: Contact us to see how you can get involved, whether it’s assisting with on-the-ground efforts or helping out at the fairgrounds.

  • Share: Spread the word! Even if you can’t donate, sharing this information can help us reach more people who might be able to contribute.
     

Together, we can make a real difference. Thank you for your continued support, and stay tuned for more updates as we prepare for this critical mission.
