Hi, friends! My name is Thanecha and I am a Tampanian who teaches yoga and group fitness classes, sings and creates music, and has created an awesome community of positivity in Tampa Bay through my monthly #Connectcha networking events.

During Hurricane Helene, the house I rent in Palmetto Beach completely flooded, and I have had to throw away almost everything I own. My big beautiful couch, both beds, kitchen table, musical equipment and speakers, clothes, sentimental photos and keepsakes... everything.

Donations would help me rebuild my life, help my landlords rebuild (as they are now having to fix thousands of dollars of damages in both their home and mine), as well as help one of my dear friends and instructors, Lola, who also lost everything when her home flooded during this hurricane.

Please consider making any monetary donation that you can, and sharing this through every outlet possible! Please post on socials, and send to any friends, family, or colleagues that might be open to supporting!

Your kindness and concern is more appreciated than you know!

If there was ever a time for our Tampa Bay community to come together, this is that time! Thank you in advance for your support.

Donations will be used to purchase the items that were damaged/destroyed (personally: two beds, a large couch, patio furniture, coffee table, clothing, musical equipment, furniture for kitchen area - my drink station and snack bar - workout clothes for work, towels for my hot yoga classes, all toiletries that were ruined - makeup, skin care, etc), as well as go to fix the damages in the homes.
