My name is Devin Hall, and I am reaching out to ask for your support in providing long-term storm recovery assistance to some of our community’s most vulnerable members.

Following severe storms in Gary, Indiana, thousands of elderly, disabled, and immobile residents have been severely impacted. While initial emergency response efforts focused on immediate power outages, the road to total recovery is long and challenging, especially for those on fixed or low incomes who lack the financial means or physical ability to rebuild on their own.

Many of our neighbors are now facing significant barriers to getting their lives back on track: unmanageable insurance deductibles, structural home damage, ruined food supplies, and a lack of access to recovery resources. Designated assistance centers can be difficult to access for residents with limited mobility or no reliable transportation, leaving them stranded in damaged homes during the recovery process.

Up to this point, we have been providing direct doorstep aid to those in need. To scale our efforts, maintain complete transparency, and deliver structured, ongoing recovery support, we launched this GoFundMe platform.

Every dollar raised through this campaign directly powers sustainable, long-term storm recovery:

Insurance Deductible Assistance: Financial support to help elderly and disabled homeowners afford high insurance deductibles so repairs can actually begin.

Home Repairs & Maintenance: Direct help with critical structural repairs, roof tarping, debris clearance, and safety upgrades to make homes safe and livable again.

Food & Sustenance: Ongoing distribution of fresh groceries, non-perishable food, and meal assistance to replace lost supplies and ensure continuous food security.

Sustainability & Long-Term Resources: Equipping residents with back-up power equipment, weatherization materials, and guidance to better withstand future severe weather events.

Direct Outreach & Coordination: Connecting immobile individuals directly with recovery tools, home assessment support, and relief supplies right at their front door.

No one should have to navigate the long road of storm recovery alone. With your generosity, we can help our vulnerable neighbors repair their homes, recover their peace of mind, and build back stronger. Please consider donating or sharing this campaign. Thank you for your continued support!
