Now that we are entering the response phase of the Hurricane Matthew, Volunteer Florida requests Individuals interested in volunteering should register by visiting this link. Registering will allow us to continue to most effectively match volunteers with opportunities to serve both immediately and during long-term recovery. Cash, Confirm, Consider the following points before donating:
• Cash: Financial support to established relief organizations is always the most immediate, useful and versatile way to give. Financial assistance allows relief organizations to meet urgent needs quickly.
• Confirm: Confirm there is a need before collecting or sending donated items. Volunteer Florida encourages cash donations to disaster relief organizations. To see a list of established disaster relief organizations, please visit this link.
• Connect: Volunteers are a critical part of a well-coordinated and well-resourced humanitarian response, but potential volunteers should confirm that they are needed before traveling to impacted areas – do not self-deploy. If you are interested in volunteering, please visit this link.
