Eight Louisvillians with the Salvation Army are now in Johnson City, Tennessee, to help victims of Hurricane Helene.

As Hurricane Helene roared through Eastern Tennessee, its heavy rains and powerful winds left behind widespread flooding and destruction. The region was battered, with families displaced and communities devastated.

As Tropical Storm Helene moves across Georgia and threatens Tennessee and Kentucky with heavy rain and strong winds over the coming days, The Salvation Army’s Emergency Disaster Services (EDS) teams in both states are preparing to respond.
