Virginia Commonwealth University Health Community Memorial Hospital (CMH) is increasing disaster relief efforts in Southwest Virginia and Western North Carolina after Hurricane Helene. The hospital has contributed more than $10,000 in first-aid supplies such as bandages, antiseptics and wound care kits. CMH is also partnering with local community organizations to gather essential supplies including food, clean water, hygiene products and baby care items.

This initiative reflects a broader mission of community service and care, extending its healthcare commitment beyond the hospital walls to reach people where they need it most. CMH encourages local residents and organizations to join hands and contribute, emphasizing that every donation, big or small, can make a significant difference in the lives of those affected.
