The Build for Good Foundation is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization located in Watauga County, NC. We are dedicated to supporting communities in need.

On September 27, 2024 the Blue Ridge Mountains were rocked by Hurricane Helene in an unprecedented weather event. The widespread flooding, landslides, fallen trees and tornadoes left a path of complete destruction stretching across the region. In the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, we immediately went to work in our own community; feeding people, distributing supplies, powering up community centers, clearing roads, repairing culverts and salvaging homes.

Now in the sixth month of recovery, our efforts are focused on rebuilding homes and neighborhoods with volunteer teams from all over the country. We are working with local community agencies and other nonprofits to stretch every donation we receive.

100% of our funds are going toward Hurricane Helene relief in Western North Carolina, Eastern Tennessee and Southwestern Virginia. We are seeking your support in our goal of raising $2 million to aid in the extensive restoration work that lies ahead.

To send donations via ACH or contribute through you Donor Advised Fund, please email buildforgood@thespeckledtrout.com.
