Operation Helene Continues
We are proud to announce that Operation Airdrop has successfully completed the flying portion of its largest mission to date. Thanks to the incredible support of our volunteers, donors, and community partners, we were able to deliver vital supplies to numerous hard-hit areas affected by Hurricane Helene.
We are however, still purchasing RV Trailers, Generators, and Propane for those in wester North Carolina who lost everything. Our mission has switched from airlifting supplies in to getting the people out of tents and into warm safe places to sleep as the snow begins to fall.
With roads now accessible, ground transportation has taken over, and many communities have shared their gratitude, saying, "You saved us!"—a testament to the impact we’ve made together. Thank you to everyone who helped make this mission possible. We couldn’t have done it without you!
