The catastrophe that was Hurricane Irma forced over 6
million Floridians to evacuate their homes and businesses. Now that the dangers
have seemingly passed, approximately 1.2 million residents are still left
without a roof over their heads. At Dimmitt Chevrolet, we understand
how challenging the rebuilding efforts will be, which is why we’re hopeful that
everyone pitches in. Below are six ways in which you can help our state and
your neighbors tackle the post-Irma obstacles.
Volunteer Florida
Volunteer Florida needs volunteers for the state’s shelters
and other disaster relief organizations. They offer Red Cross Shelter Training,
so don’t worry if you feel like you lack the know-how to help. If you aren’t from
any affected areas, such as Clearwater or St. Pete, you can always donate money.
If you are interested in volunteering or donating, please visit the Volunteer Floridawebsite.
