Help Frank's Puerto Rico Fam
Donation protected
Recently Frank moved to Wisconsin from Bayamon, Puerto Rico to start work at Umansky Motor Cars. Over the last few months Chris, our coach at RaceStart, has spent many hours working with Frank and learning about his story.
As we know, Puerto Rico was recently hit by the devastating Hurricane Maria, killing many and leaving the entire island destroyed. Frank had only been in WI for a year before learning that the eye of the hurricane would come tearing through his home town.
Nothing could prepare him for the horrific images he was about to see on the news over the next few days. He felt helpless, disconnected, and terrified.
After 5 days of no communion from his family on the island, Frank finally gets word that his family survived. 5 days! Can you imagine!? Frank's family is one of the many who have been inflicted and left homeless due to the destruction of Hurricane Maria. Hearing his story really moved me and and my husband. Chris (my husband) can relate because he too was an immigrant and knows what it's like to start with very little- Therefore, we decided to take action by providing an opportunity for the community at RaceStart to help raise funds to get Frank’s family to Wisconsin-Where they will be safe again.
