BOURNE – The Barnstable County Sheriff’s office is collecting donations to help those impacted by Hurricane Helene in western North Carolina.
Sheriff Donna Buckley said Residents can bring items like bottled water, clothes, and baby formula to several police stations across the Cape in addition to the sheriff’s offices in Bourne and Barnstable.
“There are other churches and other groups trying to collect items. If they find that they have a need to have us transport those things to North Carolina, then they can reach out to us as well,” said Buckley.
“If anyone has collected donations and needs them transported to North Carolina, call Hannah at (508) 563-4392 and the Barnstable County Sheriff’s Office can coordinate with you.”
Items will be accepted through this Saturday.
