Help Austin and Anna Rebuild After Hurricane Helene

At the beginning of 2024, Austin and Anna moved with their three kids to Tampa, Florida, for new opportunities for both their personal and professional lives. After finally settling into their new life and loving the time at the beaches, they experienced their first hurricane - Helene. They were in the mandatory evacuation zone where they waited out the storm, only to find that their home had not been so lucky. They returned home to find that a 4-foot storm surge had destroyed 95% of everything they owned. As if that weren't enough, the insurance company denied their insurance claim. They are not the type of people to ask for help, so I wanted to ask for them. They are going to have to start over and could really use the support of family and friends.

Who am I? My name is Jill Rose (in Austin, Texas) and I have been blessed to count Anna as one of my best friends for over 20 years. She has been there through thick and thin for me, and I felt called to do something to help her. She would never ask for help, but I know that things are really tough for them right now, and many of us have been so blessed that I thought we could pay it forward - something she has done for us many times. Every penny received will go towards helping Austin and Anna rebuild the life they have spent the last decade plus creating for themselves and their family.
