Thank you @JackeryUsa and Chelsea Freeborn for providing 50 multiple series of solar-powered generators to support crisis power deployment for first responders and fire departments on both the west and east sides. We extend our gratitude to Lane Carlson (@carlsonlane) for hands-on support in the west, facilitating solar power deployment efforts in collaboration with Topanga Fire Station 69 and surrounding areas, including Malibu, Palisades, and Topanga. #bstrong @bethennyfrankel @stableroadfoundation @jefferies #david&nicoletepper

In September 2024, Hurricane Helene caused extreme devastation across Western North Carolina, deeply impacting the region’s communities and its rich cultural heritage. GEM & BStrong responded immediately, and was the first organization to deliver semi-trucks full of essential supplies into Asheville.
To date, #GEM & #BStrong have sent 23 semi-trucks of aid to the area, equipped 28 tradespeople with brand-new tools, distributed over 150 Starlinks to rural communities and first responders, provided short-term housing through Airbnb.org, and conducted over 30 helicopter missions for distributions and evacuations. One of our most impactful initiatives, though, has been the Small Business & Artisan Relief Fund, which has awarded grants to dozens of local business owners and artists to help them rebuild and recover. These grants have supported needs such as relocation assistance, rebuilding and construction, purchasing new equipment, and more. So far, we’ve issued grants to 71 businesses, with additional support being awarded weekly.
GEM & BStrong remain on the ground in Western North Carolina, working diligently to empower and support all those affected by Hurricane Helene. We ❤️ these North Carolina Communities and will continue to stand with them while they recover. #DavidNicoleTepperFoundation @bethennyfrankel #BStrong

Our team on the ground in LA is led by California fire survivors from 2018. Sadly they know what it’s like to lose everything, but they have transmuted their losses into serving others in the same position they were in. At GEM, our mission is to empower disaster survivors in every phase of this response. Thank you to everyone contributing to this ongoing mission to help those affected by these devastating fires. #losangeles #lafires
