WNC Needs List

By jessi • February 24, 2026

When Hurricane Helene hit Western North Carolina, supplies were piling up in parking lots while families were standing in lines not knowing where to go. There was no shared system. So we built one. We started by mapping supply sites and connecting volunteers in real time. No funding. No formal authority. Just a gap that needed closing. That early coordination became the backbone of what we later scaled.
