The storm is projected to make landfall as a Category 3 storm with winds up to 115 miles per hour, and residents are being warned to expect power outages and gasoline shortages in the immediate aftermath. Storm surges and heavy rainfall could cause life-threatening flooding throughout the state. Thousands of National Guard troops have already been activated ahead of the storm to position supplies and prepare for the impact. As they face danger and uncertainty in the days ahead, we need to raise $50,000 in the next 24 hours to make sure they have all the support they need.

When emergencies like hurricanes strike, they are there to help communities prepare, conduct search and rescue missions, distribute supplies and support long-term recovery efforts. This is difficult and grueling work, both physically and mentally, and they do it without asking anything from us in return. That's why it could not be more important to support them every chance we get.
