  • Convoy of Hope and Operation Blessing are establishing bases of operation across the Southeast to distribute food, water, hygiene items, cleaning supplies, meals and more to impacted communities.
  • World Central Kitchen has been distributing meals in Florida, Georgia and North Carolina, while the American Red Cross has opened shelters to support more than 9,000 people in hard-hit areas.
  • Team Rubicon and Inspiritus are conducting damage assessments to determine where they can support with debris removal from roadways.
  • ToolBank Disaster Services and its affiliates across Florida are supplying tools and equipment to local organizations to support cleanup efforts.

Team Depot, The Home Depot’s associate volunteer force, is donating relief supplies to nonprofits, first responders and government agencies, and volunteers will be on the ground in the coming days and weeks to help clean up in local communities in North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida and Georgia, including The Home Depot’s hometown of Atlanta.

“Our thoughts are with the communities that have been impacted by Hurricane Helene," said Erin Izen, executive director of The Home Depot Foundation. "The Foundation and Team Depot are working alongside our disaster relief partners to assist the people and areas impacted by this catastrophic storm."

The Homer Fund, The Home Depot’s employee assistance fund, is providing immediate financial support to impacted associates in need of safe housing, food and clothing while displaced.
