Volunteers at Rebuilding Hope are collecting items needed by victims of Hurricane Florence. Items may be dropped off at the Rebuilding Hope warehouse at 414 Raleigh Road, Henderson.
The items include cleaning supplies, buckets, towels, gloves, paper towels, water, Gatorade, plastic totes, trash bags, feminine products, nonperishable foods, snacks, blankets, hand sanitizers, baby wipes, antibacterial wipes and soap, diapers, canned baby food, baby formula and toilet paper.
Items will be collected through Friday and then transported to Cove City for distribution in Jones County.
When flood waters recede, Rebuilding Hope volunteers will offer their help in other ways. Volunteers expect to assist operations centers with clearing debris and home repairs.
