2024 Disaster Response to Hurricane Helene


Hurricane Helene has devastated parts of the southeastern U.S., bringing catastrophic wind, rain and flash flooding to many states and communities. 

In response, UMCOR (United Methodist Committee on Relief), is coordinating with affected annual conferences and supporting their local relief efforts. UMCOR has awarded solidarity grants to the North and South Georgia annual conferences with multiple grants in process for other annual conferences. (As of 9/30/2024)


Additionally, UMCOR-trained Early Response Teams (ERTs) are coordinating efforts to support the removal of debris, tarping of roofs, and cleaning out of homes in hard-hit areas.

To support this multi-state disaster response,  make your donation to Centenary UMC and indicate “Hurricane Helene Recovery” in the note field. These gifts will be forwarded to UMCOR.
