Communities across Florida and throughout the Southeast are suffering from the devasting effects of Hurricane Milton and Hurricane Helene.
Over the course of two weeks, millions of people have had their lives upended by the deadly storms’ powerful winds, drenching rains and overwhelming storm surges that destroyed homes and businesses, flooded neighborhoods and spawned devasting tornadoes.
The power of philanthropy is essential to providing the emergency help people need and for the long-term investments communities require to recover.
