Help the Barris Family Rebuild After Helene

Our friends, the Barris family, are facing a very challenging time as they work to recover from the impact of Hurricane Helene, which left parts of Tampa severely damaged. Their home was hit hard, and while insurance will help cover some repairs, there are many essential items and rebuilding costs that we, as friends and family, want to assist them with at this time.

We’re reaching out because so many of you have asked how you can help. Since many of us aren’t able to be there in person, contributing what we can from a distance seems like the best way to show our support right now.

Any amount, big or small, will go directly to the Barris family and make a real difference in helping them rebuild their lives and replace things like clothing, furniture, and other everyday essentials.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for standing with the Barris family in this difficult time. Together, we can help them move forward. The Barris's will receive 100% of the donations given to them, with no intermediary transfer of funds.

I have personally known Jody since our french horns and large rimmed glasses made us best friends forever. No matter how much time has passed or how far apart life has taken us, our friendship has remained constant. I know that no amount of time or distance could ever change that. It’s this love and loyalty that inspires me to support her in every way I can, and why I’m asking for your help now. I know that many of you feel the same way, as the Barris family has a large circle of love surrounding them. Thank you!
