Hi, Jason and Nathan here. We want to get the word out about Bump and Mary Galletta's home in Lakeland. When Hurricane Ian came through our town, it brought 100-mile-an-hour winds and a ton of rain. Part of the roof on the Galletta's home was peeled back by the winds. The rain poured through the ceiling and damaged a large portion of the home, including the kitchen, pantry, laundry room and master bedroom.
If you know the Galletta family, you love them. They've probably impacted you in some way and are what I think of when I think about Lakeland. You've probably seen one of Bump's murals around town or seen people wearing his gear. You may even know his fantastic story about how his art came to be what it is. Mary is also self-employed out of their home. She cuts hair for many women in the area and is going to have to really adjust for a while to keep her business going.
Jason and I wanted to invite you to give back to the Gallettas through this crowdfund. 100% of the funds will go to the Gallettas to help meet the hurricane deductible on their home insurance and get them through the next couple of months as they try to piece their home back together. This is an opportunity to show them how they've impacted you and to love them through this time. They’ve not asked for this help. Jason and I are just friends and knew a lot of people would want to contribute and decided to set this crowdfund up.
Please give what you can!! Thank you!
