The NCBA has established a Hurricane Helene Relief Fund through the NCBA Foundation to assist bank employees in Western North Carolina who have suffered losses and property damage as a result of the storm. Bank employees living within the FEMA-designated disaster counties in North Carolina who have suffered losses during Hurricane Helene and the resulting flooding are eligible to apply for immediate disaster relief funds. Application does not guarantee a financial award. Distributions from the fund will be determined by the total amount of funds raised and the number of applications received.
