Homes have been destroyed, and roads have been washed away — and large parts of the region are still without power or fresh water. At least 90 people have been reported dead in North Carolina.
Ivanka’s dad, Donald Trumphas launched a GoFundMe to support hurricane victims.
It’s been a true team effort for the region that will need as much assistance as possible for a long time to come.
