Clerks' Hurricane Relief Fund

Hurricane Michael was one of the worst natural disasters ever to hit Florida. It caused major damage throughout Florida's panhandle, severely impacting 12 counties and our Clerk family.   As we focus on recovery, many have asked how they could help their fellow Clerks and Clerk personnel. The FCCC has been informed by impacted counties that the best way to help is by providing cash to those in need. The FCCC has created this GoFundMe to raise as much as possible, Clerk to Clerk, to distribute to those affected counties. The purpose of these funds is to assist Clerks and staff with personal costs as they deem appropriate.

How will it work:

The total amount raised will be evenly divided and provided to the elected Clerk in participating counties to distribute to those in need within their offices. The FCCC will coordinate with the elected Clerk to provide the funds in a manner that they can distribute (i.e. Visa gift cards, cash, other). Any remaining or unused funds will be donated to the Florida Disaster Fund, administered by the Volunteer Florida Foundation, to assist in the overall recovery efforts.

Who can participate:

We would encourage and invite everyone who is a part of the Clerk family, and who is able to give, to participate. Please forward this message as you deem appropriate: to the professional team members in your offices, to your vendors, and to your partners. Everyone is welcome to contribute.

While there is no official deadline for the campaign, we would like to provide the funds as soon as possible as the needs are immediate. Let’s set an internal goal to meet (and hopefully exceed!) our goal by Wednesday, October 31.

Okay Team Clerk, let's help our Clerk family. Please contact Chris Hart or Jason Harrell if you have any questions. Thank you!
