Hurricane Relief

In times of crisis, the strength of our community shines brighter than any storm.

On Saturday, our ABC-FEC team, led by T.J. Long, took a crucial journey up to Steinhatchee, delivering supplies to help our fellow Floridians recover from the devastation left behind by Hurricane Helene. The damage is vast, the challenges great—but the resilience of the people is greater.

As we unloaded, we saw residents in need of basic necessities like food and toiletries. Volunteers, who have been giving so much of themselves day after day, were brought to tears as they witnessed the generosity flowing from South Florida. In their words, “Thank you for not forgetting us.”

Despite the absence of FEMA, ABC-FEC is here. Our commitment to these communities is unwavering. We see the determination in every face we meet, and we’re inspired by their strength to rebuild against all odds.

To those in Steinhatchee—know that you’re not alone, and that ABC-FEC will continue to stand by you. Please keep these residents in your thoughts and prayers as they navigate this long road ahead.

We ask our members and suppliers to please keep providing assistance with drywall, mud, nails, flooring and equipment as they are still needed in the recovery process.

Together, we’ll help restore hope, one step at a time. ❤️
