In the aftermath of Hurricane Helene's devastating impact on the southern United States, former UFC star and Green Beret Tim Kennedy has emerged as a beacon of hope for victims in North Carolina. Through his nonprofit organization, Save Our Allies, Kennedy is leveraging his skills and expertise to provide essential aid and assistance to those affected by the natural disaster.
Kennedy expressed his unwavering commitment to helping those in need, emphasizing the moral obligation to extend assistance when possible.

If we're not going to roll our sleeves up and get dirty here on our own soil, then what are we really doing here?"

Despite Save Our Allies' primary focus on overseas evacuation and personnel recovery, Kennedy recognized the urgent need to utilize their resources to support their fellow Americans. "But if we can't leverage those same tools here in our home in the United States, then I don't know what we're doing," he stated.
Kennedy and his team have mobilized in North Carolina, dedicating their efforts to evacuating individuals and delivering humanitarian aid to the hardest-hit areas. The extent of the devastation, he noted, is beyond words. "The devastation is indescribable," Kennedy said.
