A heartwarming story to start your year

After Hurricane Helene devastated parts of North Carolina, Amish volunteers from various communities, including those from Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and Indiana, came to assist. They focused on building small, temporary structures to provide shelter for those who lost their homes. These structures are often referred to as “tiny homes” or “cabins.” The initiative known as “Cabins for Christ” involved groups of Amish volunteers who would travel to North Carolina, build homes efficiently, and then return, with new groups taking over to continue the work. These homes were intended to offer immediate relief to those in need, providing them a place to live while more permanent solutions could be arranged.

Of course the local officials got involved and cited many building for code violations. It doesn’t appear to have prevented them from continuing. their work of charity.

This could be a race against time for some families.

Lowes is also stepping up with a massive contribution

I may even forgive them for supporting Kamala Harris…

Citizens contribute

Meanwhile, the government does f-all

FEMA has closed four Western North Carolina disaster recovery centers and is tearing down its employee housing village west of Asheville while around 5,000 storm-displaced households are still living in hotels with no other shelter options.
