On this Giving Tuesday, the FLTA Charitable Action Foundation is proud to share that through the support of FLTA members and the community, the Foundation is able to provide $10,000 to the Collier Community Foundation and $10,000 to the Florida Disaster Fund for Hurricane Ian Relief.
The purpose of the Collier Community Foundation is to first provide immediate relief to those affected and the nonprofits that support the victims in the aftermath of a crisis. It also serves to assure donors’ support will reach its intended cause. After immediate needs are met such as food, water and shelter, the focus will turn to long-term needs such as housing and transportation. The Collier Community Foundation directly serves the community where the 2022 FLTA Convention was held.
Through Florida’s Division of Emergency Management, the funds provided to the Florida Disaster Fund will be earmarked directly towards the victims of Hurricane Ian. With a broader approach the funds will assist in helping other organizations and residents in Southwest Florida and other impacted communities.
In addition to these organizations, FLTA Convention attendees, exhibitors, and sponsors, joined by Florida CFO Jimmy Patronis, banded together to generate 51,464 Fortified Pasta and Tomato Sauce meals for Meals of Hope. Based in Naples, Meals of Hope continues to fight hunger at $0.30 a meal providing to communities nationally and internationally. The meals prepared on October 25th by convention goers were specific to the Hurricane Ian recovery efforts.
