What Ga. Gov. Brian Kemp said during Augusta visit
Shepeard has not collected any blood since Hurricane Helene hit the CSRA, but it has supplied more than 150 blood products to area hospitals. Hurricane Helene swept through causing devastation all across the CSRA and the southeast - damaging trees, power lines and hundreds of houses. If you have been impacted and need shelter, here’s where you can find it throughout the CSRA. At least 21 deaths in the CSRA are blamed on Hurricane Helene, including five young kids. The deaths span the CSRA, including Richmond, Aiken, Saluda, Washington, Columbia and McDuffie counties.
