Shutterstock From the other side of Helene, signs of community and care spread throughout Savannah. Clean Eatz offered Auspicious Baking Co. its kitchen for a day, Bandana Burger served free burgers and snacks out of Agatha’s on MLK, and neighbors all around shared our homes, hot water, and resources.
