Rebuilding After Hurricane Helene

Our U.S. Rebuild teams are serving communities in western North Carolina, eastern Tennessee, Florida, and  Georgia.

Samaritan’s Purse is constructing hundreds of new homes for families whose houses were left uninhabitable after Hurricane Helene. We also are replacing hundreds of mobile homes. Furniture and materials assistance is available as well.

In addition, we are providing grants to churches that were damaged by the hurricane.

Our U.S. Rebuild staff works with teams of volunteers to construct or repair houses to make properties livable again after natural disasters. This is provided free of charge through the generosity of our donors.

  • Repair of hurricane damage to stick-built homes (wooden frame houses that were built on-site) owned as primary residence
