Rapid Response Disaster Fund for Chatham County

We have assessed the County’s needs and has activated the Rapid Response Disaster Fund for Chatham County. Funds will be allocated across the community for short-term relief and/or long-term recovery efforts as deemed necessary based on damage and needs assessments.

United Way, CEMA, and the Coastal Empire Disaster Recovery Committee (CEDRC) are using Crisis Cleanup to collect information from Chatham County residents who have physical damage to their homes following Tropical Storm Debby and the related flooding event. If a homeowner has damage to their home or property, they can call 1-844-965-1386 to register for voluntary agency assistance. Registering with Crisis Cleanup does not guarantee assistance but does allow organizations within the area to receive notification of the community's needs.

Residents impacted by the storm may contact United Way’s 211 Information & Referral System for critical resources and information by calling 2-1-1, emailing 211@uwce.org, or visiting United Way’s website at uwce.org/211.
