Hurricane Ian Darcy Bishop Disabled Family

Donation protected
This Fundraiser is set up for a disabled & special needs family that has been devastated by Hurricane Ian. Residents of Naples, Florida, Darcy Bishop and her brothers were flooded out of their home and are left with nothing. For those who do not know the family, Russell Rochow, 66, is wheelchair-bound with special needs and Todd Rochow, 63, also has special needs. Both had been born with cerebral palsy, and their mental development is of a young child's. They are limited on funds and housing options. We are trying to get them into housing that can accommodate a wheelchair and a car to get to medical appointments. She does not want to put them in a group home as she was told that if she put them in, she may never be able to get them back out from the state. Family is everything to her and she is trying to keep the family together. They are open to any assistance at this point, whether financially or with a helping hand. Darcy broke her right hand just after the storm making caring for them all the more difficult. We are trying to get them the help they need. All money goes 100% to these boys!

Thank you and God Bless. Our thoughts and prayers are with all those families affected by the Hurricane.
