President Donald Trump is handing out warm meals and encouragement to some North Carolinians recovering from Hurricane Florence.

Trump assisted volunteers at Temple Baptist Church in New Bern, North Carolina, on Sept. 19.

He passed out styrofoam containers with food: including hot dogs, chips, and fruit.

He also asked how the drivers were doing.

“How’s the house?” he was heard asking one person. “You take care of yourself,” he said.

Trump also applauded organizers and thanked volunteers at the site. He posed for photos and hugged volunteers, including a young boy.

One volunteer said the site handed out 1,200 meals on Sept. 19, to those in need.
