Hundreds of people filled a trailer with items that storm survivors will need day to day. From bed sheets to blankets, toilet paper, paper towels, cleaning supplies, and medicines.

“Just feeling helpless and wanting to help best we can,” Lori Beyer said.

Channel Nine’s Almiya White spoke with firefighters in Mooresville who are doing their part.
“All areas have came together and it has just been heartwarming. With all the help that everybody is getting,” Brooker Killian said.
Corey Wilkinson, the Vice President of the association says this drive is a reminder that our neighbors in western North Carolina are not forgotten.
