 "They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but even a thousand pictures couldn’t begin to capture the devastation here. Having spent years working in third-world countries, I thought I had seen it all. Before arriving in Western North Carolina, I watched countless Facebook and YouTube videos and read through numerous news articles and social media posts. Yet, despite my experience and preparation, nothing could have prepared me for the sheer destruction I witnessed in Yancey County, NC."
