The Organizing Resilience team has swung into action in support of Florida leaders preparing for Hurricane Ian. As you've likely seen, central Florida including Tampa, Orlando and Jacksonville are likely to experience significant damage. This fund is anchored by those who came together in the wake of Irma in 2017 – Florida Rising, Dream Defenders, Florida Immigrant Coalition, FL Jobs With Justice, and Faith in Florida, and regranted to over 38 grassroots partners who addressed immediate needs and long term campaigns.
The FL team is anticipating real needs and organizing opportunities around housing, energy, and undocumented immigrants. We hope you'll be prepared to move quickly with us to identify opportunities to uplift these organizations, their work and the critical needs on the ground once we have more clarity around the storm's impact.
