Eric Church Is Committed To Building Homes In Hurricane-Devastated North Carolina

Eric Church’s commitment to helping out the people impacted by Hurricane Helene didn’t stop with this past weekend’s The Concert for Carolina. The country superstar shared a personal video during the benefit show where he announced his long-term dedication to being involved in the state’s ongoing recovery. The video is available to watch via Church’s Chief Cares charity site. “Our mission in North Carolina is to be here for the long haul,” Church says in the clip. “We are going to start by immediately building homes for 100 families in Avery County and the surrounding areas, and keeping these communities preserved and rebuilt.” Chief Cares has subsequently launched an initiative called Blue Print for the Blue Ridge, with an immediate goal to build 100 homes in the Avery County community, which the North Carolina native has a special affinity for. Church hopes that this is just the start of his ongoing involvement in the rebuilding of the storm-ravaged areas in his home state. (Taste of Country)
