Chesapeake ACS Delivers Aid to Carolinas

Story by Evan Knott

The Chesapeake Conference Adventist Community Services (ACS) recently delivered a truckload of much-needed supplies to North Carolina to support survivors of Hurricane Helene. This relief effort was made possible through the generosity of church members across the Chesapeake Conference who responded to the call for donations with overwhelming support.

The shipment included three pallets of bottled water, weighing approximately three tons, as well as a pallet of diapers and a mixed pallet containing hygiene items, wipes and cleaning supplies.

While media coverage has moved on, the challenges facing the affected communities remain significant. Chesapeake Conference ACS staff remain committed to assisting those impacted by disasters and encourages continued support for relief efforts.

“Thank you to the Chesapeake Conference family for your support of your sister conference in the Carolinas,” says Shawn Paris, Chesapeake Conference ACS director. “The need is great, and we must not forget them.”
