In September of 2022, Hurricane Ian pushed its way through southern Florida. In the event, at least 5,000 homes were destroyed, and 160 lives were lost in the horrible natural disaster that struck. When all hope may have been lost, a group of HEART volunteers, who winter in Florida began to help. Semi-loads were sent down to the disaster, each one containing a variety of furniture, water, clothes, toiletries, cleaning supplies, and more. Our group has done a remarkable job assisting in distributing items and working with local churches to determine where HEART can assist with the reconstruction of lost homes and providing hope for families.
Such a blessing has made out of what seemed to be a hopeless situation. Even though these volunteers have done so much for so many, HEART still has bigger plans. Starting April 10th going to April 15th, the HEART ministry will send a team to Fort Myers, Florida.
HEART needs you to volunteer!
