• Roots of Recovery

Angela, a 29-year-old single mother and home health aide in Western North Carolina, relies on her car to get to work and transport her children to school. Unfortunately, her car was severely damaged in the flooding caused by Hurricane Helene. While she saved the vehicle from being fully submerged, key components, including the brake system, were destroyed. As a dedicated caregiver to elderly clients, many of whom depend on her care, Angela faces the risk of losing her job—and the ability to support her two children—without reliable transportation. The repairs needed to make her car safe to drive will cost $560, which Angela cannot afford in the aftermath of the storm. Your support will help Angela cover most of the cost of replacing her brakes and addressing water damage, allowing her to return to work and continue providing for her family and community.
