Hurricane Ian's impact on our state is widespread and many are now in need. The call has gone out to help fellow Floridian's in their time of need. A number of volunteers opportunities are available. If you can help, please visit the Volunteer Florida website to register for an assignment. You can also make a financial contribution by visiting the Florida Disaster Fund webpage or donate by texting DISASTER to 20222 to make a $10 donation. The Florida Disaster fund is the state's official private relief fund that was "established to assist Florida's communities as they respond to and recover during times of emergency or disaster," according to its website.
The Red Cross: You can donate online or text "IAN" to 90999 to make a $10 donation. The group is also asking for blood donors.
