South Carolina Abaco Relief started with a NEED, a connection and a plane.
The need after hurricane Dorian was immediate. After years spent vacationing in the Bahamas, making local friends and finding a home away from home, we had to do something to help. We filled our small plane with water and basic supplies and lifted off for our very familiar Abaco.
Once Abaco came into view from the air, it was obvious there was not much familiar here. The grateful faces of our local friends was the only familiar thing left. Our supplies were welcome, but there was not nearly enough for everyone. What began as a supply run now became an evacuation flight.
Word quickly spread among friends of both the need and the effort. As word grew, more people responded. Others began to contribute supplies. Even others began to volunteer planes and time. More supplies came in, more people flew out.
More and more people became involved and now we are working with warehouses, cooperating with relief agencies, building partnerships and more. We continue to make connections, expand the effort and participate in the recovery efforts. We are both excited and overwhelmed at the tremendous response. We hope to have the opportunity to partner with you to bring hope to the people of Abaco.
Today the need for building supplies is exponential! There are many families still living in their cars, roofs are destroyed, and mold has begun to grow in the interior of their homes.
We are in need of plywood, peel and stick roofing, 2x4's, mold remediation kits, tools, nails etc.
All supplies donated are delivered directly into the hands of the people in need!
Today that need still exists, and will exist for a long time. Our goal is to not only help people sustain life, but rebuild their life.
We can't tell you how much we appreciate the faith you put in us to through your donation.
