Georgia's Agriculture Industry is Weathered. Let's Help Keep It Strong.
Georgia's leading ag organizations are banding together to build a relief fund for Georgia farmers affected by the storm. Farmers need our support. Please consider a donation to help us preserve Georgia's family farms.
This Affects Us All.
When crops are destroyed, we are all impacted. It is crucial that we support our farmers during this difficult time and band together to protect the future of our ag industry. Your contribution can make a significant difference in their recovery and in the preservation of a healthy, local agriculture industry. Please consider donating and also helping us spread the word about the campaign.
How You Can Help:
About the Fundraiser
This relief fund is made possible through a coalition of more than 40 agriculture organizations.
The Weathered But Strong: Hurricane Relief Fund is a cross-industry fundraising initiative aimed at supporting Georgia farmers impacted by Hurricane Helene. The fund will provide direct assistance for agricultural losses, including damages to crops, livestock, and farm infrastructure. 100% of the funds raised will go toward farmers in need in Georgia.
All donations will be processed through the Georgia Foundation of Agriculture and will be tax deductible. Contributions can be made through a secure online donation form or via check (made out to the Georgia Foundation for Agriculture). Fundraising will end in December and then an application period will begin whereby farmers can apply for funds based on need.
