Hurricane Help - Save the Date! In response to Hurricanes Helene and Milton, ULS will organize a supply drive beginning the second week of November. We are delaying our drive because former ULS coach T.S. Noble, in North Carolina, said things will be needed next month as there is an abundance of supplies currently available.
To support other impacted areas we will assess needs and hardest-hit communities in the next four weeks, so if you know of an organization or area, please reach out!
Stay tuned!
