Hurricane Florence smashed into the Coast of the Carolinas with powerful winds
and left catastrophic floods that have thousands of residents displaced and in need.
As always,
CC International will be organizing college and university-based volunteer teams to assist communities and families impacted by this historic disaster. The recovery will be a long and difficult process and we need as many winter and spring alt break volunteers as possible to lend a hand.
Please consider organizing and sending a team of volunteers to respond to this catastrophe.
"Residents struggled with the aftermath of a storm that damaged tens of thousands of homes, drenched the area with record rains and triggered floodwaters that are not expected to recede for days.."
Over the next few weeks, the CC International Advance Team will be meeting with First-Responders, Long-Term Recovery Groups, and Community Service Organizations in communities impacted by the storm to determine where volunteers are needed most and where to locate our Volunteer Facility
We expect to start deploying volunteer teams in November.
"CCI brought over 1000 volunteers to Hancock County, Mississippi after Hurricane Katrina. Their efforts were well organized and effective in delivering relief to our residents. We appreciate CCI's assistance"
"I was very impressed by your extremely effective and well- organized program's ability to maximize the efforts of an array of different groups to make real progress in the area."
Since 2002, CC International has responded to major US natural disasters by organizing teams of college and university volunteers from across the country.
Over 15,000 volunteers from over 200 colleges and universities have provided thousands of hours of service to communities in need.
