Chantal Relief
We have been monitoring the effects of Tropical Depression Chantal this week and how best to provide support to our community members. Pockets of Durham, Orange, Alamance, and Chatham counties have been devastated by the unexpected rainfall and subsequent flooding. Many businesses and homes are facing weeks if not months of clean up and rebuilding.
We are gathering information from organizations that are providing or need support, and as we continue our assessment, we will update this blog post.
