Josh Winters The RV Nerd   Josh Winters is part of the Bish’s family Of RV Dealers across the country. This is from Josh’s YouTube page and sums up what he does nicely. Hey everyone! I'm Josh the RV Nerd and welcome to Bish's RV! I began my journey into the world of RV'ing in 2009 when I began working for my family's business at Haylett RV. There I learned a great deal, started this channel, and began showcasing RV Reviews, Tips, Insights, and News into the world of RVing and the Industry in General.

Came ashore around 9 pm on September 26th.

 

Hit the big bend area of Florida and traveled across Florida, Georgia, NW South Carolina, Western North Carolina and East/Central Tennessee

 

Massive devastation and loss of life have occurred. Death toll has exceeded 100 and it is climbing.

 

Whole towns have been destroyed and many large cities have been crippled.

 

Interstate 40 and 26 have had road and bridge washouts. Side highways and other roadways have been destroyed and/or compromised.

 

Charitable organizations are mobilizing to bring much needed food, water and shelter as soon as they can.

 

What can you do? Plenty…

It has been said that CASH is KING! And it is if you know who you are donating too.

 

Our choice is Samaritans Purse. They are located in Boone NC and they’re area has been hit hard. Money helps get the ball rolling and they also have volunteer needs to go into the areas that are in need. The rebuilding will take many years due to the shear scale of devastation.

Billy Graham Evangelistic Association

Mercy Chef’s is highly recommended by one of our friends that is knowledgeable with their service.

World Central Kitchen

International Disaster Emergency Service

Cajun Navy and Cajun Navy 2016

Florida Disaster Fund

The Florida Disaster Fund is the state of Florida’s official private fundraiser for disaster relief. The fund provides financial assistance to communities as they respond to and recover from emergencies or disasters like Hurricane Helene. Visit The Florida Disaster Fund website for more information and to contribute. 

The Community Foundation of Western North Carolina 

The Community Foundation of Western North Carolina is a non-profit that serves 18 counties of western North Carolina with unrestricted charitable funds. Contributions can be made at their website.

Eastern Tennessee Foundation

The state of Tennessee has set up a fund to assist recovery in the eastern part of the state. The Neighbor-to-Neighbor Disaster Relief fund operated through the Eastern Tennessee Foundation will help non-profit organizations across a 25-county region. You can donate here.

Plus there is the Salvation Army and others as well.

We  try to keep the funds in local charities as much as possible and not pay it to a GoFundMe sight as the host takes a large percentage of the proceeds.

Samaritanspurse.org is a great place to start,

Rhonda and I are looking at schedules to be able to go and volunteer on a build project for Samaritan’s Purse as soon as our schedule allows. We have been deep in prayer about what we can do for the long term during the recovery.
