Important Announcement: Humanitarian Connection is Dissolving
​
January 3, 2025
Dear Supporters,
​
After thoughtful reflection, we are announcing that Humanitarian Connection is reaching its natural conclusion. The mission of this organization has been fulfilled, and we have made the decision to close operations. As our founder and director, Cinnamin Herring, steps away to focus on securing personal financial stability, we are confident that the work we've done together has made a meaningful and lasting impact.
A Legacy of Impact
​
Over the past three months, with your generous contributions, we have been able to make a significant and lasting difference in the lives of those most affected by Hurricane Helene. Thanks to you, we were able to provide heat, urgent repairs, and essential supplies to hundreds of families and individuals who were struggling to rebuild their lives. Your support has empowered us to extend compassion, resources, and hope to many who had nowhere else to turn.
We want to reassure you that every donation has been stewarded with the utmost care and respect for the people we serve. Our team has worked tirelessly to ensure that your contributions were directed to those most in need, and every initiative was executed with the goal of providing meaningful and sustainable support.
​
Dissolution Process and Ongoing Commitment to Help
​
We are currently in the process of legally dissolving the organization, which includes distributing any remaining funds to provide further aid where it is most urgently needed. These funds will continue to help those requiring critical services like heat, urgent repairs, and other essential support. We are committed to ensuring that all financial resources are used in the most responsible way possible, and we are taking the appropriate legal steps to complete the dissolution properly.
​
Moving Forward
​
While Humanitarian Connection may be closing its doors, the need for relief efforts continues. Cinnamin Herring, who has poured her heart and soul into this work, is more than happy to help connect anyone interested in continuing their support of these crucial efforts to other reputable organizations. Please reach out to us at 828-356-5433 if you would like to be directed to those organizations that are carrying forward this important mission.
​
Final Words of Gratitude
​
To all of our donors, volunteers, and partners – we cannot thank you enough for your unwavering support. You have truly made a difference in the lives of many. You have helped us bring warmth, hope, and healing to communities that needed it most. Your kindness and generosity have created a ripple effect that will last far beyond the life of this organization.
​
As we close this chapter, we do so with full hearts, knowing that your contributions have left a lasting, positive impact. We hope you will continue to support those in need and trust that your actions, big and small, can change the world.
​
Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for being part of this journey with us.
​
With deep appreciation,
Cinnamin Herring
