weird hermIf you're looking for a way to donate to Appalachian disaster relief after Helene, check out the Highlander Center facebook page. I trust their vetting of organizations and they are based in Appalachia themselves. I also like that they share links from orgs outside NC, since there is catastrophic damage across state lines.
See my comment for a list from their Facebook/IG page, if you can't access it: https://toot.cat/@weirdofhermiston/113244349440704443

@[email protected] They are sharing info from other organizations as they come up, so there's not a list. They do have an Instagram account, but that has the same login issue. https://www.instagram.com/highlandercenter Here are the posts I currently see: Poder Emma (https://www.poderemma.org/), donate at https://www.colaborativalamilpa.org/ Appalachian Voices has a list of orgs at the end of their Helene page: https://appvoices.org/helene-relief Appalachian Community Fund (https://appalachiancommunityfund.org/) has a Helene Relief Fund: https://appalachianky.fcsuite.com/erp/donate/create/fund?funit_id=4036 Mutual Aid Disaster Relief (https://www.instagram.com/mutualaiddisasterrelief) has supplies station in several areas: donate at https://mutualaiddisasterrelief.org/donate/ Tri-cities Mutual Aid (https://www.instagram.com/tricitiesmutualaid) has lists in these documents: East TN: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16DEEWE94xntZb_m4bZ9JDtJhPNgqz8uHS81uTr-PLCI/ WNC: https://bit.ly/wncheleneguide
