Hi everyone - I'm Steven Viveiros from Manasota Key Marina.

As the bait house where I was employed was wiped out by Hurricane Milton, I no longer have a job. While I'm working frantically to get a new job and am willing to do almost anything for work, I am facing insurmountable difficulty paying bills and staying above water (pardon the phrase).

My many customers and friends have urged me to set up this GoFundMe page so they can support me in this transition. Those who know me, know I am far better at giving than receiving, so I am terribly uncomfortable with all of this. You can rest assured that whatever funds are raised to help me get through this, will be donated to others in need once I'm on my feet.

Thank you all for being so supportive and helpful to me at this terrible time.
