Hurricane Maria PR Relief Fund

Donation protected
Hurricane Maria is one of the strongest storms ever measured in the Atlantic and has caused catastrophic damage to Puerto Rico. This fund will provide relief to survivors in the form of emergency supplies like food, water, and medicine in addition to longer-term recovery assistance to help residents recover and rebuild. All donations to this fund will exclusively support any necessary relief and recovery efforts from this storm in Puerto Rico. With damaging winds of over 150 MPH and a huge storm surge, Hurricane Maria has destroyed homes and critical infrastructure in the Island.

Immediate Solution
All donations to this fund will support recovery and relief efforts for Hurricane Maria. Initially, the fund will help first respondents meet survivors’ immediate needs for food, fuel, clean water, hygiene products, and shelter. Once initial relief work is complete, this fund will transition to support longer-term recovery efforts run by local, vetted organizations responding to this disaster.

Long-Term Impact
We believe that our large Puerto Rican community in Florida, that are deeply-rooted in locally are in the best position to provide long-term support for survivors of natural disasters like Hurricane Maria. By funding the relief efforts of local organizations, donations to this fund have the potential to build stronger response capacity so that these organizations are better equipped to face future challenges. Ayudame a Ayudar (Help Me, Help Others) will post reports about how funds have been used and will email these reports to donors and sponsors.

Thank You Very Much for your time, attention, and donation.
