<div>Hello, my name is Amber Henry a single mother of 4 from Tampa, FL. On October 10, 2024, at around 5 AM, <strong>my children and I were rescued by reporter Beth Rousseau of WFLA News Channel 8 after being trapped in waist-high floodwaters for nearly seven hours during the devastating Hurricane Milton.</strong> I was in a non-evacuation zone in Lakeland, Florida, with my four children, aged 4 to 11. <strong>We lost everything.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As the floodwaters rose in our home, we were left in complete darkness, standing in cold, waist-deep water. With transformers exploding around us, I made the terrifying decision to get my children to safety. I carried all four of them through the flood to a neighbor’s house, breaking in to save us from drowning.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our home is completely destroyed. My car was washed away during the storm surge and is gone. All we have left are the clothes on our backs. <strong>We are in desperate need of help to rebuild our lives from the ground up.</strong> Any support you can offer would mean the world to us. Hoping to raise enough to secure a new safe place for my children and me, as well as replace our living essentials.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please help us get through this overwhelming loss and rebuild our lives.
