MacIntosh Books Relocation Fund

Last week our long-standing community bookshop suffered a devastating blow by Hurricane Ian. With a massive storm surge and all access to the island cut-off, everything inside our beloved shop is lost. It’s not just the merchandise, but equipment, fixtures and memorabilia. We are rebuilding our shop from scratch and our prayer is that we can reopen in an interim location for the year or two that it takes for Sanibel to heal, rebuild and welcome us home. MacIntosh has been a Sanibel tradition since 1960 and we will not say goodbye this way! If we can gather a small nest egg, to be used for relocation expenses, we will reopen nearby in November and save our family business. There is so much devastation and so much need, it’s overwhelming, but our family is committed to the community we’ve built and the island we call home. Please help if you can and know that your messages and comments are the bursts of joy that light our new path. Thank you, friends and stay tuned for the next chapter of MacIntosh Books!
