Allen Tate Companies and Allen Tate/Beverly-Hanks Realtors, the Carolinas’ real estate leaders, have joined with parent company Howard Hanna Real Estate to contribute $200,000 to support Hurricane Helene relief efforts..

The $200,000 donation to the American Red Cross from the Howard Hanna Family of Companies Foundation, the Allen Tate Foundation and the Beverly-Hanks Gives Big Foundation, will support ongoing relief efforts in communities throughout North and South Carolina impacted by the storm. More than 500 Allen Tate and Allen Tate/Beverly-Hanks Realtors, employees and their families live and work in Western North Carolina communities where devastation is widespread.

“In Western North Carolina, we are a family of neighbors, always willing to lend a hand to others in need. Allen Tate/Beverly Hanks has opened our offices as community hubs to those who need to charge technology, contact loved ones, file FEMA applications and insurance claims, or have other critical needs we can help with. Our agents and employees have stepped up to coordinate supply donations and deliveries,” said Neal Hanks, president, Allen Tate/Beverly-Hanks Realtors.

“Our region has suffered tremendous devastation and it will be a long recovery. But I am tremendously encouraged by the outpouring of support that I have seen in the past two weeks. Our communities are resilient, and our company and our people have made – and will continue to make – a significant impact on our recovery and rebuilding,” Hanks said.

“The determination and generosity shown by our agents, staff and partners have been nothing short of remarkable. As we work closely with the American Red Cross and local organizations, we’re focused on getting help to those who need it most,” said Gary Scott, president, Allen Tate Companies.

“Our hearts are with everyone affected by the disaster, including many of our own,” said Howard “Hoby” Hanna IV, CEO of Howard Hanna Real Estate Services. “We are committed to standing alongside our communities as they begin the recovery and rebuilding process, providing not only financial assistance, but also a place of refuge and support.”

Hurricane Helene impacted multiple communities throughout the Allen Tate and Allen Tate/Beverly-Hanks footprint in North and South Carolina, including the Asheville/Mountain region, Blowing Rock, Boone, Highlands, Cashiers and the Upstate region of South Carolina.

“I am steadfast in my belief in the desirability of this mountain region, and I know that our communities will continue to thrive,” Hanks said.
