Following the devastation of Hurricane Helene, the Amish community has come forward to provide crucial assistance in North Carolina, where many families have been left without homes and without relief from the Biden-Harris regime. With federal help slow to arrive, hundreds of Amish volunteers from Lancaster, Pennsylvania, have organized to bring much-needed relief to Swannanoa residents.
Each week, a new team of 57 Amish volunteers arrives by bus to work from Monday to Friday, constructing small cabins for displaced families. When one group returns home, another takes its place, maintaining a continuous effort to support those impacted by the historic flooding. This steady presence has been a source of comfort for locals who feel the federal response has been insufficient.
Thank you to the Amish community for stepping up to help the disaster relief recovery efforts in western North Carolina. The temps are below freezing at night so shelters and generators, propane tanks and propane and warm weather gear are greatly needed right now. Thank you.… https://t.co/YvlGcIdaqs

The Amish volunteers live simply, setting up camp in tents and relying on donations and local resources for food. They bring their own supplies and require no assistance, asking only to be allowed to work independently. Known as “Cabins for Christ,” the project is intended to give shelter to families while they rebuild their lives.
God bless the Amish.

The Amish volunteers have stated that they are not seeking any form of recognition. Their faith drives them to help those in need, and they believe it is their responsibility to offer assistance wherever possible. As they continue to work, they have earned the admiration and respect of the community.
The Amish’s presence has offered hope and relief to the people of Swannanoa. Their kindness and dedication have shown that even in the darkest of times, there are those willing to lend a hand, asking for nothing in return.
Would this in anyway determine the outcome of the upcoming election 🤔 😉 ?
