Supporting Our Community in the Aftermath of Hurricane Helene

Hurricane Helene has deeply affected Western North Carolina and beyond, leaving many communities devastated. During this challenging time, our thoughts are with those impacted, and we want to highlight the many relief efforts coordinated by Duke University and Duke Health. Whether you're looking to offer support or are in need of assistance, there are several ways to get involved:

  • Donate to the American Red Cross: Financial contributions can provide immediate aid to those affected.
  • Give Blood or Platelets: Donations through the American Red Cross are critically needed during disaster recovery.
  • Contribute Items to the Duke Hurricane Helene Relief Drive:  Donations are being collected at the Duke Athletics Ticket Office until October 11th.
  • Donate to the Caring for Each Other Fund: This fund assists Duke team members experiencing emergency needs.
  • SMAT volunteer form: RNs, NAs, paramedics, respiratory therapists, APPs, and physicians are especially needed to join the State Medical Assistance Teams (SMAT).
  • Cost-Free Support Services: Duke offers a variety of support services to help students, faculty, and staff cope during natural disasters.

We will post additional resources as we become aware of them. Thank you for supporting our community during this difficult time.
