As the holiday season begins, Western North Carolina residents affected by Hurricane Helene struggle with homelessness. The Cajun Navy 2016, a volunteer organization, delivers RVs and campers to those still living in tents or RVs where their homes once stood.
As the holiday season begins, residents of western North Carolina who lost everything during Hurricane Helene want their fellow Americans to keep them in mind. Some people in hard-hit areas like Swannanoa and Burnsville, or in hard-to-reach places nestled in the Appalachian Mountains, are still living in tents or RVs where their homes once stood.
recently came under fire after former supervisor Marn'i Washington instructed the agency’s relief workers to avoid reaching out to homeowners in Florida who had Trump signs displayed outside their homes after Hurricane Milton, which struck the U.S. about two weeks after Helene. Washington appeared on 'Fox News @ Night' on Nov. 14 and said she was 'simply executing' orders from her superiors to avoid political encounters that could be hostile.
In North Carolina, has also deployed more than 4,800 personnel to the affected areas. Americans from across the country have been donating everything from RVs to cars to tree-cutting and roof repair services to those in need. But what western North Carolina needs most now is money, according to those in the area.
