As you may or may not know, our sweet colleague, April Lindquist lives in Cape Coral, FL and ended up facing Hurricane Ian head-on. April and her family are one of the many impacted by the devastation inflicted on Florida after Ian struck as a monstrous Category 4 hurricane, one of the strongest storms ever to hit the U.S. It flooded homes on both the state’s coasts, cut off the only road access to a barrier island, destroyed a historic waterfront pier and knocked out electricity to 2.67 million Florida homes and businesses — nearly a quarter of utility customers.

She and her family are safe and physically unharmed but, as expected, her home and area sustained damage. The rebuilding and repairs will take some time and to show our love and support for her and her family we have started a GoFundMe. Any contributions are appreciated.
