Helene Relief

Words cannot express the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene. As Lisa Parker, executive director of the NC Craft Brewers Guild, said, "This is going to be a marathon, and we're going to need everyone’s endurance to rebuild."

The craft beer community is just that, a community. No one has the resources to fix or restore what has been lost alone. But when we all come together as a community, we can. No matter where you are reading this, we can all help with the relief efforts for Hurricane Helene.

How can I help?

You can help by donating materials, food, and/or money to a relief organization on the ground. This is by no means an exhaustive list, only a consolidation of events, drives, and organizations that have boots on the ground in the places that need it most. If you know of another organization or event that needs to be added, please email us at charlestonbeerfest@gmail.com
