Helping Hurricane Victims of Helene and Milton from California

As Californians, we are no strangers to natural disasters—wildfires, earthquakes, and mudslides. While our experiences may differ from those facing hurricanes, the core of who we are remains. We want to help our fellow citizens in times of crisis. Hurricanes Helene and Milton have left many in need, and more damage, destruction, and heartache are looming.

While it may seem like we are helpless, there are indeed several effective ways for us to lend a hand from across the country.

Before diving into ways to help, it is essential to understand the magnitude of the damage caused by these hurricanes. Victims often face immediate challenges like loss of shelter, food insecurity, and disruption of essential services. Recovery can take months, even years, and understanding these needs can guide our efforts to provide meaningful support.

One of the most effective ways to assist hurricane victims is through financial contributions. Many organizations are on the ground, providing immediate relief and long-term recovery support. At K3 Holdings and Alpine LA Properties we are supporting organizations that include the Red Cross and local food banks. These are often one of the first responders in disaster situations, offering shelter, food, and medical assistance.

Donations, no matter how small, can make a significant difference. Many organizations also have specific campaigns set up for hurricane relief, allowing you to see the direct impact of your contributions.

Disaster relief doesn’t end with immediate aid. We are keeping up to date with the latest news on the recovery efforts for Helene and Milton. This will help us understand the evolving needs of those affected.

We will be looking at our inventory of housing options too and offering families that may want to relocate (or need a space temporarily) to have some stability as the recovery effort is underway.

As Californians, we know the power of community and compassion. Though we may be thousands of miles away from the devastation caused by hurricanes Helene and Milton, we can still make a profound impact.

By donating, organizing drives, volunteering, advocating, and staying informed, we can stand in solidarity with those affected and help them on their road to recovery. Let’s harness the spirit of our community and lend our support to those who need it most and pray for those who are affected and those who love them.
