Relief Efforts for Bat Cave and Chimney Rock

*Please direct all requests for evacuation, rescue, and resupply to Global Empowerment Mission. This is an organization we are working with directly on the ground to coordinate efforts. Before requesting supplies or rescue, please verify that your people of concern are still in their location! Every flight puts our crews in harm's way, and we don't want them taking those risks without reason. Thank you!!*

We have been running a private relief/rescue operation to the Bat Cave/Chimney Rock Valley since Sunday, Sept 29. We now have two A-Star helicopters conducting operations in the hardest hit areas of western NC. We have flown thousands of pounds of fuel, food, water, generators, and medical supplies to residents cut off from civilization.

We were the first helicopter to drop off any supplies to the people trapped in Bat Cave and have been on the ground coordinating evacuations of people and pets. The rescue coordinators have virtually no communications with the outside world other than the sat phone we delivered.

Our helicopters fly in full of supplies and fly out full of people that need rescue/evacuation.

If you can't help us, help a neighbor! Thank you for your support!
