Help support the Bled Family after Hurricane Helene & Milton

Hello friends & loved ones,

My name is Anna Bled and our family lives in St Petersburg, FL. I am starting this GoFundMe to help our family with housing, essential needs, and medical costs in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene & Hurricane Milton.

Hurricane Helene flooded our home at the end of September and we still have not been able to move back in. Not even 2 weeks after Helene, Milton barreled through, causing additional damages to our home and delaying repairs.

Shortly after Hurricane Milton, our daughter, Lyra, was hospitalized for gastroenteritis. She required fluids and glucose for two days. We are happy to say that she is back to normal (which is the most important thing), but it set us back both in terms of progress and finances.

My sister, Ruth, set up another GoFundMe for us, which we truly appreciated. It helped us with evacuation expenses, food, and lodging. I feel bad setting up another one, but was strongly encouraged to do so.

At this moment, we are in desperate need of day to day living expenses. We have yet to receive anything from our insurance, and from what I am hearing from others with the same provider, we may not receive much. We are trying to do as much as we can ourselves to save money, but it's proving to be a challenge.

Thanks for taking the time to read this! Any amount helps!

With gratitude,

The Bled Family
