God’s Pit Crew assisting Hurricane Helene victims in multiple areas
DANVILLE, VA. – Critical relief products traveled through the night and were delivered to Madison Church of God in Madison, Florida, early this morning. Additional God's Pit Crew trucks delivered miscellaneous loads of Blessing Buckets, bottled water, cleaning supplies, snack foods, and other supplies to Mayo, Ocala, and Naples, Florida – as well as Sylvania and Valdosta, Georgia. Damage caused by Helene spans throughout the entire Southeast, with many affected areas still inaccessible due to flood waters and washed-out roads.
Local volunteers with the God's Pit Crew Immediate Disaster Response Team spent Saturday serving Dry Fork, Virginia, cleaning up damage caused by a confirmed tornado in the small community. An additional volunteer crew will be onsite in Galax, Virginia, beginning Monday, September 30, to assist with needs in that area caused by torrential rain and extreme wind gusts.
God's Pit Crew volunteers and truck loads of equipment will depart from the Virginia-based headquarters on Monday, September 30, and travel to Valdosta, Georgia, to assist with damaged tree removal and flood cleanup through Sunday, October 13.
The ministry continues to monitor flood ravaged areas in North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and beyond. At this time, the majority of areas affected by flood waters are inaccessible as the currents recede, but God's Pit Crew intends to assist those areas when able.
"Millions of people are experiencing heartbreak from this tragedy, but we have faith that God will provide and lead us where we can help," stated God's Pit Crew Immediate Disaster Response Coordinator Chris Chiles.
All relief efforts by the nonprofit, for-impact organization are made possible through the generous contributions made to the ministry. As continuous truckloads of product deploy, the need is great for donations and volunteers to continue aiding as many people as possible.
For those looking to assist with God's Pit Crew's disaster response initiatives, volunteer and donation opportunities can be found by visiting GodsPitCrew.org or by calling and speaking to a representative at (434) 836-4472.
