National Guard units were deployed across the Southeast in response to Hurricane Helene. The Category 4 storm made landfall Thursday, and the heavy rain and flooding has devastated communities in North Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, South Carolina, and Florida.
Working with local, state, and federal entities as well as civilian agencies providing response efforts, the National Guard is answering the call amid the natural disaster.

North Carolina Air National Guard members delivered over 100,000 pounds of food, water, and essential goods in a C-17 Globemaster III to Eastern North Carolina.

The Florida National Guard is focusing on counties hit the hardest by the storm, distributing supplies and providing humanitarian assistance.

The Georgia Army National Guard has been mobilized to help with debris clearance missions across areas of Georgia affected by Helene.

Members of the Kentucky Air National Guard have been deployed to North Carolina to assist with recovery of flood casualties.
The comprehensive response to the storm, the aftermath, and the communities in need illustrates the selfless service of our Enlisted National Guard. When disaster strikes, the Guard has proven itself to rise to the occasion and provide aid to those who need it most.
The We Care for America Foundation is dedicated to providing emergency financial assistance to the men and women of the National Guard and their families. Each day, across the 54 States and territories, our National Guard members are working hard to support their communities and protect our Nation and we want to be there when they are affected by a catastrophic personal hardship, a declared national disaster, or a nationwide-pandemic. You have the power to impact the lives of National Guard Soldiers and Airmen too — if possible, we ask that you make a tax-deductible donation to WCFA to support our mission.
