Disaster Relief & Long-Term Recovery for Hurricane Helene Survivors

When disaster strikes, United Way of the Lowcountry and the American Red Cross are on the scene, but our job doesn’t end there. We know that true recovery takes time. That’s why we’ve partnered to create a Long-Term Recovery Group (LTRG) to help residents in Beaufort, Jasper, and Hampton Counties.
