Update on Our Hurricane Response

Our small and mighty team is working through more than 2,000 applications for both Hurricanes Helene and Milton. The processing time for applications may range from 6 to 8 weeks, depending on the date of your application—cases are processed in the order in which they were received. You must apply online for assistance.

If you applied for assistance unrelated to a disaster, we are working as quickly as possible to process your case. Please reach out to your case manager directly or casemanagement@southersmoke.org for any updates. We appreciate your patience during this challenging time. We are committed to serving you as soon as possible and look forward to the opportunity to assist you.

We are so grateful for the outpouring of support, and thanks to generous donors, our first round of Hurricane Helene funding is going out this week!

WHERE WILL I BE COOKING:

Zachary is from Upstate New York and Hannah from Houston, Texas. They both share an infinite love for farmers markets, fine dining, camping, and cross country road trips. Their adventure started while working together in the kitchen at Husk Charleston in 2015, and they haven’t stopped grooving since. From the South Carolina coast to the waters of the Caribbean — Hannah and Zachary spent a year and half working in the Yucatán. Their time spent working at Hartwood and Husk solidified their love for wood burning ovens, bright & bold flavors, fresh produce and simplicity. Zachary and Hannah moved back to beloved Charleston to open WELTONS FINE FOODS, a mobile wood-fired pizza concept that celebrates the grains, produce, farmers and fishermen of the low country. In late 2022, they opened WELTONS TINY BAKESHOP in downtown Charleston, an extension of their mobile concept which focuses on naturally leavened baked goods that continues to hone in and celebrate heirloom grains, tiny sourdough loaves, European style pastries, and laminated doughs.
