Please help the Naylor's start fresh after Hurricane Helene.

My name is Hilary James and our area in East Tennessee got hit hard by Hurricane Helene. I'm here to ask for help, if you are able, for my sister Allison Naylor, her husband Danny Naylor, and their 1-year-old Evelyn to get started in a new home. Their rental house was destroyed in the flooding from Hurricane Helene on Friday, September 27th, and is uninhabitable.

They tried to evacuate when they saw the water rushing in towards their house from the river nearby, but quickly realized that every exit road was covered in water. They called me for help. My husband rushed to them with a truck, and when he got there, they were on higher ground with water surrounding them. At that point, first responders didn't know that area was underwater, and there were many people trapped in their houses. They made it out safely and are living with us for as long as needed. But they are sleeping on couches, so they really need a stable place to call home.

Their current landlord wanted their belongings out ASAP in order to fix up the house, so they got a storage unit for the furniture that they could salvage. They were lucky and only lost sentimental items and holiday decor stored in the basement, plus everything on the floor inside, like toys, books, and rugs. But the house is currently filled with mold, and the foundation is unstable. It will take at least a few months to repair, but it really should be condemned. They rightfully don't feel comfortable moving back in.

They really don't want to ask for help, because of all the people affected by this hurricane. That Friday could have been much worse for them, and they are extremely blessed that it wasn't. But they still need a place to live. Please help get them a little relief to get started with a new lease and get settled. Thank you!!!
