Florida has been ravaged by two powerful hurricanes, Milton and Helene, leaving a trail of devastation in their wake. Families have lost their homes, businesses are in ruins, and entire communities are struggling to pick up the pieces.
Right now, our friends, families, and neighbors in Florida need our help. That’s why we’re launching an emergency fundraising campaign to provide immediate relief to those affected, especially in St. Petersburg, Clearwater, and Tampa.
The Never Settle Foundation will match every dollar you donate to the GoFundMe campaign, up to $2,000, effectively doubling your impact!
Why St. Pete / Clearwater / Tampa?
This campaign is deeply personal to us. Both my mom (Mindy Sundquist) and sister (Larissa Reynolds) live in the St. Pete/Clearwater area. They were impacted by the hurricanes but thankfully avoided the worst of the disaster. But they have witnessed the destruction and pain caused by these hurricanes firsthand. They’ve seen homes reduced to rubble, families sleeping in their car, and the growing desperation of those who have lost everything.
Here’s how your donation will make a difference:
- Emergency Shelter: Many families have nowhere to go. Your support will help provide safe and temporary housing for those displaced by the storms.
- Food and Water: Access to clean water and food is critical in the aftermath of a disaster. Your donation will help us get essential supplies to those in need.
- Rebuilding Lives: The road to recovery will be long. Your contribution will support families as they begin to rebuild their lives and their communities.
Larissa Reynolds has volunteered to lead our efforts on the ground to support families and individuals in their greatest needs. Money from this campaign will be distributed directly to hurricane victims or used to purchase the items/services they need the most.
Any remaining funds will be donated to our incredible partners at Team Rubicon and Samaritan’s Purse, who are working tirelessly on the ground in Florida to provide aid and support.
And here’s the best part: The Never Settle Foundation will match every dollar you donate to the GoFundMe campaign, up to $2,000, effectively doubling your impact!
Our Commitment to Transparency:
We believe in complete transparency. We’ll provide regular updates on how your donations are being used, both here on our website and the GoFundMe page.
