‍Crisis Response—ReachGlobal

Western North Carolina

One Saturday each month (with an option to go up Friday and spend the night in a local church), a small team of New City volunteers travel to Hendersonville, North Carolina to work with ReachGlobal Crisis Response and homeowners who are rebuilding after Hurricane Helene. Teams primarily assist with manual labor tasks including tree and debris removal, minor construction repairs, and general clean up.No special skills are needed, but space on the team is limited. Volunteers will be considered on a first-come, first-served basis. To learn more or to join the team, reach out to Dan Nelson.
