#NewBernStrong Hurricane Florence Relief Bucket Drive
At AlphaGraphics of Downtown Raleigh, we understand that our Eastern North Carolina community needs our help immediately. Our sister offices, AlphaGraphics of New Bern and Printelect, are located in New Bern and our parent company was founded in New Bern in 1902. New Bern is home; we are from there, we have family there and work alongside fantastic folks in New Bern on a daily basis. We have deep roots in the New Bern community and now is the time to support the place that has built us.
We don’t know the extent of the destruction yet, but we do know that there is a long road ahead to recovery. In an effort to help with the cleanup efforts, we’re delivering Hurricane Relief Buckets to New Bern and surrounding areas. To accomplish our goal, we need help from friends, family and business partners within Eastern North Carolina. That’s where you come in – if you will help us get the supplies together, we’ll make sure it gets into the hands of folks that need it.
