Help Me Recover from South Florida Floods.

Hi everyone,

My name is Evan Barber, and I'm an Audio/Visual Technician and novice filmmaker from Fort Lauderdale, FL. I'm reaching out to my community for help in the aftermath of a devastating natural disaster.

On the week of April 11th, South Florida experienced a "once in a thousand year" event, and my home was greatly impacted. Unfortunately, I lost nearly everything I own, including clothes, furniture, audio equipment, music instruments, cameras, and lenses. It's been difficult to come to terms with this sudden loss, but I'm grateful to be alive and healthy.

I have a steady job at a local church, but with the added expenses of rebuilding my life after the flood, it's becoming increasingly difficult to make ends meet. That's why I'm starting this GoFundMe page to ask for assistance in being able to pay for temporary lodgings and to replace things I lost.

If you feel more comfortable contributing in a different way, I have created an Amazon wishlist with items that I need to rebuild my life.

(Edit: I heard there were some issues with the Amazon wishlist sending to the address given. If you run into this issue you can buy the item separately and send it to:

401 SE 15th Ave,

Fort Lauderdale, FL 33301

And send me a message so I can remove the item from the wishlist.)

Any contribution, whether financial or through the wishlist, will be greatly appreciated. If you're unable to contribute, please consider sharing this fundraiser with your network.

I know there are many people in need right now, and it's humbling to be on the receiving end of help.

Thank you for taking the time to read this, and for any help you can provide.

Best regards,

Evan Barber
