HomeTrust Bank Committed to Serving Local Communities Following Hurricane Helene

Asheville, N.C., October 3, 2024 – While the full impact of Hurricane Helene and its aftermath, including catastrophic rain and flooding, is still unknown, relief efforts continue, and HomeTrust Bank is committed and prepared to serve its employees and customers who were affected.
“Our thoughts and prayers are with the many families and businesses impacted by the devastating flooding,” said C. Hunter Westbrook, President & Chief Executive Officer. “We want to assure everyone affected of our firm commitment to work with you to provide the banking support needed for your home, your business and our great communities. In addition, the teamwork and dedication of our employees has been tremendous as they restored bank operations while tending to their personal and familial responsibilities. We are also humbled by the support, supplies and outreach from other banks throughout the Southeast.”
As we emerge from the devastation our communities have suffered, our top priority is the safety of our customers and our team members. We have now communicated with and confirmed the safety of all our employees, as well as assessed all our banking locations noting only minimal damage from the storm. We remained functionally operational throughout the storm, including electronic banking services and online operations, and currently all but three of our 36 locations have at least drive-thru banking available. With utilities and communications still impaired and unstable, particularly in our home base of Western North Carolina, please refer to our website at www.htb.com/hurricane-helene for the most recent updates and service availabilities.
