Lori & Tony in Fort Myers

Hi, my name is Michelle, I live in PA, and I am fundraising to help my sister and nephew, Lori & Tony, in Fort Myers, FL, who need help recouping from the aftermath of hurricane Ian.

I know many are affected by the devastation the hurricane has caused, but this one is very personal to my heart because it is family. My sister is a single mother now dealing with extensive damage to her home and her belongings due to Ian and has gotten no help from FEMA, and her insurance will only cover a small portion of what she has lost.

Beyond the walls and flooring that have been damaged, she has completely lost her central A/C unit, an estimate of $10,000 to replace, which insurance will only cover up to $6,000. The home's furniture, appliances and belongings are a 100% loss with no reimbursement. There is also a 2017 vehicle that is a complete loss and a second vehicle with damage.

The amount being raised is only a tiny portion of what she needs.

100% of the funds received will go towards repairing her home and replacing all lost items due to flooding. Funds will be sent directly to Lori.
