Sometimes, the helpers need help!

The North Carolina Community Action Association is a network of agencies focused on alleviating poverty and supporting economic mobility in every county of North Carolina.

Recent floods associated with Hurricane Helene have caused massive destruction in our western service areas. Several agencies have displaced staff who have lost everything - including their homes and vehicles. Our community action frontline workers need the support of their friends and colleagues.

Sometimes, the helpers need help! Please consider contributing to the recovery if you are able.
