Numerous other groups from Louisiana and Acadiana have made the trip to the Carolinas to assist as Florence moves closer to shore.
Today Acadian Companies shared a photo of their 16 ambulance vehicles and 38 employees in South Carolina.
KATC’s JoshMeny will have more on the effort to help as Florence comes ashore tonight at 6:00 pm on KATC
