Eric Church breaks ground on 40 new homes for Helene survivors

NEWLAND, N.C. — Construction has started on 40 new homes for families affected by Hurricane Helene.

Gov. Josh Stein joined country music star Eric Church in Newland Friday for a groundbreaking.

After the storm, Church promised to build 100 homes in 100 days.

His nonprofit said in February that weather and closing delays changed the timeline and the number of houses to be built.
