Friend,

Less than a year ago, Hurricane Ian made landfall in southwest Florida, causing widespread damage, power outages and devastating loss of life. Thanks to generous humanitarians like you, Americares was able to deliver relief supplies, deploy an emergency response team and work alongside local health leaders like Deanie Singh, who operates two mobile health clinics in one of the hardest hit areas.

Before we share more about how we partnered with Deanie to ensure that storm survivors got the help they needed, we have to ask: Will you make a lifesaving gift of $125? Your generosity makes it possible for us to send urgent aid in the wake of extreme weather events like hurricanes, wildfires and floods and help hard-to-reach communities restore health services. Your donation will directly impact our ability to respond at a moment's notice when disaster strikes.

Deanie is the executive director of Premier Mobile Health Services, which is one of 15 health partners in Florida that Americares supports. When Hurricane Ian hit, Deanie’s mobile health clinics were able to reach storm survivors where they were when they needed help most. We provided Deanie with emergency funding – allowing her to hire surge staff and quickly reach more people with critical care.

These kinds of deep local partnerships – developed both before and after disaster strikes – are a key part of how Americares is able to respond so quickly and effectively to more than 30 emergencies a year, across the country and around the world. But none of this work is possible without your support.

So please, will you make a gift of $125 right now? Your generosity means we can continue to support local health leaders like Deanie who devote their lives to making their communities more resilient through better health.

Thank you,

Tija Danzig
Senior Director, US Programs
