Helping the helpers: 38 western North Carolina nonprofits aiding disaster recovery receive unexpected staff care grants.
At a recognition lunch in Asheville, Duke Energy Foundation honored the incredible nonprofit organizations that continue to be on the frontlines of helping our communities recover from Hurricane Helene.
These nonprofits have been serving their communities tirelessly – restoring hope, rebuilding homes and providing critical services to support neighbors as they recover. Today, we gave back to them with $5,000 each in staff care grants – a heartfelt thank-you to the people behind the progress.
“We’re grateful to support local nonprofits who’ve cared for the communities of western North Carolina during the past year. These grants are our way of thanking the helpers and providing capacity for our nonprofit partners to pause and care for themselves after a year of constant caring for community.” – Amy Strecker, president, Duke Energy Foundation.
