Hurricane Helene has struck the east coast as a powerful Category 4 storm, bringing with it wind speeds exceeding 140 mph, a storm surge expected to surpass 20 feet, and more than 15 inches of rainfall, causing widespread flooding and damage across Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina, and South Carolina. Entire communities have been plunged into darkness, with homes and businesses severely impacted and cut off from main roadways. Thousands of residents have been displaced, and Jewish communities are facing urgent needs for recovery, aid, and rebuilding.
Jewish Federations are uniquely positioned to offer vital support in times of crisis like this.
