The Creek Campus virtual tour video above shows the beauty of our Creek Campus as well as the rich learning environments previously found in and outside of the buildings. Here are some images of our Creek Campus after Hurricane Helene.

In the wake of Hurricane Helene's devastating impact, FernLeaf Community Charter School needs your help to rebuild, reconnect and recover. Our beloved Creek Campus, home to over 430 Kindergarten through 4th grade students, has been completely destroyed by catastrophic flooding.

Hurricane Helene's unprecedented rainfall on 9/26/24 has left our Creek Campus in ruins:

Three main buildings washed off their foundations
All instructional materials, technology, and furniture destroyed
Athletic fields, outdoor learning spaces and gardens obliterated
26 acres of land and 1,200 feet of Cane Creek frontage severely damaged

OUR MISSION IS AT STAKE

For nearly a decade, the Creek Campus has been the heart of our experiential and outdoor education programs. This unique setting allowed our students to:

Engage in meaningful biodiversity studies
Explore nature through formal projects and informal discovery
Develop a deep connection with the environment
Explore passions through physical education and athletics

YOUR SUPPORT MATTERS

We're determined to rebuild and continue providing innovative, inspiring education to our community. But we can't do it alone. Your donation will help us:

Relocate over 430 displaced students
Replace lost educational materials and equipment
Rebuild our outdoor learning spaces
Restore our community

JOIN OUR RECOVERY EFFORT

Every contribution, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to restoring our community, rebuilding our school, and restoring hope for our students and families in the wake of this tragedy. Your generosity today will shape the educational experiences of generations to come.

Together, we can turn this tragedy into an opportunity for growth and renewal. Donate now and be a part of FernLeaf's inspiring comeback story!
