World Renew Adds Milton Response to Hurricane Planning

World Renew Adds Milton Response to Hurricane Planning

OCTOBER 9, 2024

World Renew Disaster Response Services (DRS) is coordinating with officials and other voluntary organizations to plan a response to Hurricane Milton, which is following on the heels of Hurricane Helene as it approaches Florida’s big bend region this week. World Renew is preparing to assist with needs from Hurricane Milton even as we are adding Hurricane Helene to our existing work in Sarasota, Florida, following Hurricane Debby in August 2024.

World Renew DRS is making plans to offer clean-up, repair, and reconstruction services among homeowners affected by destruction from these recent storms. World Renew has opened an account to receive donations to respond to Hurricane Milton. You can give to help Milton survivors in Florida recover by donating at worldrenew.net/hurricanemilton.

Hurricane Milton is predicted to make landfall late Wednesday, October 9, 2024, as a Category 4 storm with a 10- to 15-foot storm surge, impacting areas already damaged by Helene. Mandatory and recommended evacuation orders for 51 Florida counties are in effect, with many residents fleeing north this week before Milton hits.

World Renew DRS is a voluntary non-profit organization that provides clean up, rebuilding, needs assessments, and long-term reconstruction services, free of charge, to disaster survivors in North America who are low income, elderly, disabled, or uninsured. World Renew DRS collaborates with local community organizations in disaster areas to help homeowners rebuild their houses and lives.

Many residents of the barrier islands and coast are still cleaning up after damage from Hurricane Helene in September, when more than 230 people were killed across the southeastern US and causing major flooding and infrastructure damage in Florida and South and North Carolina. It is estimated that Hurricane Helene has already done 47 billion dollars of damage on Florida’s Gulf Coast. Milton is expected to cause significant additional damage in the same area.

World Renew has more than 50 years of experience providing long-term, community-based assistance in disaster-prone areas of the United States and Canada. We provide communities that have experienced a disaster with short-term clean up as well as long-term disaster recovery work that may be requested over the next one to three years or longer.

Your donation today means we can help families find hope and rebuild their homes. Thank you for sharing Christ’s love—and helping to respond to the needs of people living in communities devastated by these storms.
