Hurricane Milton is projected to bring damaging winds and life-threatening storm surge to Florida. Here's how you can help: Federal employees and their families may face significant challenges in the aftermath of this storm. Following Hurricane Helene, FEEA is providing disaster relief grants to federal employees across six states, assisting with temporary lodging and storm-related damage. FEEA is again ready to provide support through our Disaster Relief Grants, helping feds cover the costs of temporary lodging, critical home repairs, and replacement mattresses. But we need your support! Back-to-back hurricanes will strain FEEA’s resources. Join us in bringing our #FedsHelpingFeds mission to life and to help federal employees impacted by both Hurricanes Helene and Milton.

Hurricane Helene will cost $35 BILLION. The average hurricane costs businesses $22 billion. FEMA reported that 40% of businesses don't reopen after natural disasters, and another 25% will close after 1 year. So, likely 40% of businesses won't reopen after Hurricane Helene. The crazy part? Most people didn't even see Helene as a threat. Yet it has: ➡️ Leveled towns ➡️ Destroyed homes ➡️ And changed people's lives forever As businesspeople, it's our job to positively impact the world. So, how can you help people who are hurting after Helene? I set up a fundraiser through Daffy. We're matching the first $100 to kick it off.
