Hey everyone!
In light of the storms and terrible damage in our communities, we have decided to reschedule the planned September meeting – we will let you know when that is on the calendar.
We found some opportunities for helping those in need due to the storm; here are some links to those sites:
Wilmington area food banks

On the Brunswick County page
https://www.brunswickcountync.gov/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=260.
The VOAD (Voluntary Organizations Active Disaster) page has a good list of organizations and a contact person if there are any specific questions or requests.
The American Red Cross North Carolina Region has opened a shelter due to flooding caused by excessive rainfall from PTC #8. The shelter is available free of charge to individuals and families who need assistance and connect with resources. The shelter is located at the Brunswick Center at Leland (121 Town Hall Drive, Leland, NC 28451).
Volunteer or Donate
Brunswick County cannot accept donations, but you are welcome to visit the Brunswick County VOAD webpage to see partner organizations with unmet needs that you might assist or support: brunswickcountync.gov/voad.
Those who are interested in volunteering can find volunteer opportunities at brunswickcountync.gov/volunteer.
You can also check local municipal websites for additional opportunities at brunswickcountync.gov/municipalities.
Until we host our next meeting, let’s keep serving our communities with the best we have to give. 💙
See you soon!
