In one of our recent posts about Hurricane Helene’s recovery efforts, a Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) review showed that the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) sent $59 million to New York City so officials could house illegal aliens in luxury hotels.
Therefore, the agency clearly had the funds to assist the displaced North Carolina residents struggling to find shelter.
There is more positive news to share, including an indication that local organizations can make a big difference.
A group of 13 engineering students from the University of North Carolina in Charlotte are using their college classes to design bridges for victims of Hurricane Helene in Western North Carolina1. This initiative is part of an independent study led by Professor Shenen Chen, aimed at helping rebuild infrastructure in Ashe County that was destroyed by the hurricane.
