"This is our home, and we are committed to supporting relief efforts throughout the region by providing critical resources and aiding the efforts of our heroic first responders. The impact on our community has been severe, but Carolinians are resilient and courageous, and, together, we will rebuild and recover," the Teppers continued.

The storm made landfall in the United States Thursday and affected the sports world. Two games between the Atlanta Braves and New York Mets were postponed to a doubleheader Monday that could decide both teams' postseason fates.
