  • Radio host and singer Granger Smith is collaborating with the non-profit organization Hope Found to deliver essential supplies to areas in the South impacted by hurricanes.

  • A convoy carrying vital supplies, including water filtration systems, chainsaw oil, propane, and medical supplies, has already departed for the Carolinas and East Tennessee.

  • These supplies are aimed at addressing the immediate needs of residents affected by the recent disasters.

  • Smith emphasized the importance of having 'intel on the ground' to effectively understand and respond to the evolving needs of the affected communities.

  • In addition to the supply delivery, Smith will broadcast his iHeart Radio show live from Appalachia, a region that has faced significant power outages due to Hurricane Helene, using Starlink kits.

  • He plans to leave these Starlink kits in the region to help facilitate local communication after his team departs.

  • Smith aims to raise awareness and support for the impacted communities, expressing enthusiasm about iHeart's backing for this initiative.
