SERVING MY COMMUNITY
ASKING FOR YOUR HELP
POSTPONED TO MAY 15, 2021
For the past 29 years, I have fulfilled my passion through serving the public before, during, and after a disaster. In my neighborhood, the greatest concern is hurricanes. As a volunteer, I serve as the coordinator of our neighborhood's SOUTHSIDE HURRICANE SAFETY FEST. I'm appealing to you for your help.
Purpose
When a disaster hits, one of the first things people do is reach out to those closest to them: neighbors and loved ones. Knowing this, we want to strengthen neighborhood bonds that are vital before and after a hurricane hits.
The FEST
Serving our neighbors in Apalachee Ridge, Blairstone Forest, Indianhead-Lehigh, Myers Park, South City and Woodland Drives
- Give-a-ways of hurricane-related items
- Hurricane safety-related speakers and exhibits from the public and private sectors
- Food and beverages
- Games for kids
- Music and entertainment
Charitable Focus
The CHARITABLE PORTION of our event is to provide much needed hurricane supplies to low income families who might otherwise be unable to afford them. We hope to provide 300 sets of supplies.
How YOU can help
Each set of supplies - as listed by the City of Tallahassee through their Neighborhood PREP Program - costs $100. Please help us reach our $30,000 goal which will provide 300 full sets of hurricane supplies. You can donate here: http://wooddrives.com/southside_hurricane_fest.html
