Everyday, Everywhere, Everyone
As part of NCScifest 2025, AMOS is collecting stories from WNC residents who used their intuition, their science or engineering backgrounds, or who quickly learned a skill to help their community during and after Hurricane Helene. We are looking to capture stories from all over WNC- from folks who quickly rebuilt bridges to citizens who helped their neighbors by learning the physics of a flushing toilet.
